Parable of Man - 1. Parable of Man

The Parable of Man

By W.L

 

I give you a man

Who has a plan

He desires great wealth

All for himself

He places bets on the markets

He purchases many tickets

Behold, he has wealth

All for himself

 

I give you a wealthy man

Who has a plan

He desires friends

So his greatness extends

He goes to the bars

He jokes with famed stars

Behold, he has friends

His greatness extends

 

I give you a wealthy likeable man

Who has a plan

He desires love

A man to be proud of

He writes certain ads

He invites them to his pads

Behold, he has love

To be proud of

 

Now, I give you a jealous man

Who has a plan

He desired everything

A man not beyond lying

He lies to a man of wealth

He poisons him in true stealth

Behold, he is dead

Alone in his bed
