TERRIBLE TO COVET

At the top

Of this pen

Sees my face

Put this in


How much peace

We could gain

By letting go

Of covets reign


I see it for

The thing it is

A cancer of soul

Needs a sieve


Bestowing so many problems

And it never gives

So much lost peace

Ensuring it strongly lives


Help push coveting away

Resist it on any day

Plenty of tragedies to spare

But coveting belongs nowhere


A great leap of mankind

If no coveting to find

Much fewer wars or fewer feuds within

All if coveting could sink not swim
