The Poor & The Rich

The poor and their hope

Enough to cope, enough to cushion the rope

Their necks still break, their kin still weep 

But the world still turns if hope they keep 

The rich and their stuff

Never too much and never enough

The earth stripped bare, the people despair

But their lust for stuff is their only care

As a minimalistic person, this really resonates with me. I have grown up and always been financially stable, but I've never understood the connection people have with 'things'. Especially if a person has one, why do they need multiple. I chose to only use and buy what benefits me in some way and is necessary. It keeps me sane.
