Acquisition of Money  

Money comes and goes
Nothing but in the hand
It craves & dissociates a sense of goodness & blessings
It cuts our wings
Eats our soul like a cancer
Its acquisition requires unfair means.

People require for
Health, strength, honour, generosity beauty
Its absence means
Illness, weakness, disease, meanness, ugliness
They support numerous scandals
Bofors, bribery, sugar, armsgates or tehelka exposure.

Mafia group around the world
Gather power chiefly muscle & money power
Through smuggling of drugs or indulging in immortal activities
Racketeers have thrived
Innocents starve & the streets litter with dead
Stress on character is less & acquisition of money more.

No religion stresses on its acquisition,
All religions stress on its acquisition but for humanity.
