Concupiscence

America is all about money.

If you're poor, you’re thankful for any.
If rich, you are striving for more.

Poor enough, you don’t have to pay taxes.
Rich enough, you will never pay more.

So, the poor remain always among us,
by self-righteous completely ignored.

And what about Christ in Christmas?
By an X, meaning dollars, replaced.

As with bees whose labor is honey,
our labor means nothing but money.
