Foreign Concepts

Peace and friendship

Love and respect

When did these become

Such foreign concepts

Helping others

Selfless deeds

Meeting everyone’s

Basic needs

A roof over their head

A place to sleep

Warm clothes

And food to eat

But now it’s money

People care about

Lining their pockets

And filling their wallets

Putting own wants

Before others’ needs

Selfish actions

Insatiable greed

When did these cease to be

Foreign concepts
