TAINTED MONEY

The tainted money is now ready
To be spent. What will it buy?
Maybe the friendship that is lost?
No--The damage is already done.
Maybe new clothes to look better?
No--Face the mirror.
Maybe foods to fill the taste?
No--Feel the sickness in the gut.
Maybe trips to take you afar?
No--You will be alone with no one to care.
Maybe dole out some to your kin?
No--It is tainted money. You shouldn't share.
Maybe to hide and keep?
No--It's there to haunt, you will cry.
Maybe shed some tears over what is lost?
Yes--That's what it will buy!
