Forever Hungry

By island warrior

Errors in judgement
The lessons you learn
Mistakes are the matches
That make money burn

Such a fine line
Made clearer in time
Danger ever present
But not as present as your mind

Fly in a web
Spiders crowding round
Chequered is the tightrope
Of the web that is wound

Its a path to paradise
As freedom you grasp
Hunger now engulfs them
The spell forever cast
