Money

Money is everything,

or so people say.

Money is useful,

created to keep order,

well that was the plan.

But now for most money is much more,

and order is not in the equation anymore.

Money is power,

wealth,

anger,

pain,

gain,

loss,

time,

money has lost meaning but the people who have it only want more and those who don't just want enough to survive.

Money....this is all what is wrong with the world today....money.

I am not a poet myself, but i do like how you have worded your piece. Its very sinplistic one a subject that can get complicated and sometimes nasty. I like poety like this - cutting straight to the chase, easy to read and and a great flow to it.

The words couldn't be any truer. What's that old saying, "money is the root of all evil"?

money has lost complete meaning, it's grown to become such a ludicrous item, this presents how it can hold dominance over every aspect of life

[Adam Adams]

quite a very familiar poetry you've come to licked down. money's certainly a "want" to some people, perhaps, when it's turned to one's "need", it's hard to figure out what exactly what life wants to survive, and to live, and for what... cos, its hunger's something that has already distorted the shape of this world, & altered the arc of this very universe, dramatically. very captivating, and eye-catching poetry it is. certainly considering this one of my fav. nice imagery here!
