A paved flash of urban slick
propelling souls in swaying mass,
diverts aside where Heaven waits,
designer clad
and labelled loud.
Temptation's talons claw to greet,
"see how soft, how glitter rich,"
how shiny is the gleam of greed,
in eyes that seek
to slake desire.
"Touch the dreams of weeping grasp,
luxuriate in sweet excess."
Hades self indulgent rich
denying Penia's
ruling hand.
Courting plastic wealth of least,
unlikely prey are brought to stoop
till urban slick paves hunger's path
and glitter rich
lies empty poor.
