THE LIVING LIE

Noise and business in their pride, rejoice in their accomplishment, stealing from the moment presence and joy.

Overindulgence, the fuel that keeps the engine humming, fills every available space

while avarice and malcontent its willing mates,incessantly whisper the lie it's not enough,

until with fiendish stealth they arrive at their intended destination where love cannot possibly survive...

apathy.
