Permanently etched on man's heart, is his devious mistress, money.
Money; the cause of needless conflicts.
Money; that which exposes man's bitter core.

Brother killing brother,
Mother killing son,
All for a taste of the vanity that deceives us all.
It lies, it cheats, it betrays and devours.
Oh! What could neutralize its venom?

But is gold to blame
For man's laissez-faires?
It is only a tool for him to satisfy his greed.
Man's untamed desire is the true 'gorgon',
Whose visage has turned his entire world into stone.
Does he deserve pity?
