THE RICH MAN'S POCKET - a poem.



Lined with velvet

Exquisitely stitched

Always filled 

Is the rich man's pocket. 


Perfumed with roses

Elegantly bordered

Always filled

Is the rich man's pocket.


Dark and scheming

Crooked and evil

Always greedy

Is the rich man's pocket.


The rich man's pocket is

Always filled.

With theft 

From the poor man's pocket. 


Mark 10:21 

And Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “You lack one thing: go, sell all that you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”
