Running for President
Greed is good
said Gordon Gekko
but greed is God
to some who
have more money
than one can count
and must hire
others to count it.
But in America one
can seek power
to feed one’s greed
because no one has
too much power
even if one has
too much money
until the day
the hearse pulls up
and takes the flesh away.
