Giving&Taking

Give a little,
take a little.
Take a lot,
give a pot.
Taking and giving,
just a part of living.


This is a world of greed,
some take more than they need.
Others give more than they take,
still others live to fake.
They'll drain you dry,
care less whether you cry,
even use while you die.


While you lie in your grave,
you'll still be their slave.
They'll steal your identification,
for their own satisfication.
As your bones rot,
they'll continue to plot.


Givers and takers,
many heart breakers,
quite a few soul shakers,
many hate makers,
less joy givers,
just mean livers.


G
