Quatrain of Rich Scoundrels

Rich Scoundrels - say it isn't so

If riches had great value they
would not be bestowed
upon scoundrels and
jerks,

The poorest among us can be
far richer than those who
live with riches as
perks.

If being wealthy were an attribute
to cravenly pine, the worthless
soul wouldn't be
awarded,

But riches are valued here on
earth as if they are God's
giving, in fact, wealth is
wicked and
sordid.
