An all-consuming plague
Taking everything and hoarding it
Where it can never be found
Selfish narcissist
Self-entitled to everything
Stealing in the night
Not a person, a virus
Poison to thought
Monetary disease
No cure for this epidemic
Taking and wanting all the time
Can't risk spending for fear of losing
Snatching from the hands of the innocent
Grinning in selfish madness
Succumbing to greed

Taking and wanting all the time
Can't risk spending for fear of losing
Snatching from the hands of the innocent
