Is Prosperity A Curse?

Once poverty propelled the people
Into stealing of things from next door.
Now prosperity drives the people
Into prowling for women next door.
Once poverty compelled the people
Into seeking work to earn wages.
Now prosperity sends the people
Into making money by wrong means.
Once poverty installed people
Into collective helps and service.
Now prosperity spurs the people
Into reaping wealth from service.
Once poverty huddled the people
Into God fearing for the safe life.
Now prosperity sets the people
Into using deities for rich life.
