The world is full of riches, but they are held by only a few. The many are left to fend for themselves. There is little in the way of equality as greed and avarice blinds the eyes and stains the hearts of people. Many would be king and think they know best, only to find that it must be by the sword that they rule. Then war and poverty scar the landscape as many die for no cause other than they do not believe as a would be monarch. In truth there is life in abundance, and it is we the people who stamp it out for our own selfish ends.
