A selfish fish loved to swim
He wanted to keep moving
Selfish, a child was hungry
An arrogant Watcher revealed in order
He wanted to keep the peace
Arrogant, a revolution was brewing
A greedy child craved a home
She wanted a mother’s kiss
Greedy, the adults are too busy
A thoughtless lover longed for her mate
She wanted a family
Thoughtless, a war needs men
A cruel baker wept for her suffering
She wanted the past
Cruel, change is progress
Wanting
Selfish, arrogant, greedy, thoughtless, cruel
The Wanting.
