Greed needs need
Greed needs need
For lead greed creed seed
When need goes, greed goes
When need goes lead greed creed seed goes
Maintain greed to overcome need?
One’s fear of need creates everlasting greed
One see’s need and succumbs to everlasting greed
No desire need is everlasting greed
One feels he needs need to maintain greeds creed
But not his own need, he needs greed and he needs need
Like the mountain needs the valley
Greed needs need
Like the owner needs the renter
Greed needs need
Need measures greed
Need is the best friend of greed
Greed is needs destination
Greed is needs admiration
Need buys greeds products if greed is a good enough destination
Need needs greed
Need needs a ladder
Need finds a path in greed
Without greed, there is everlasting need
Need-greed
Greed-need
The old English said
Some had fear to leave greed
Some had fear to remain in need
Locks were placed on greed and need
The old English said
Everyone can’t be greed
Everyone can’t be need
There are a diversity of jobs need is planned for
Caste systems placed locks on greed and need
To satisfy the diversity of jobs
Greeds fear of need was stronger than need expected
After awhile greed became clever to lock in need
The more greed the more beauty
The more greed the more education
The more greed the bigger house
The bigger house the more greed needs need
Greed erected philosophies and religions
Greed became a way of life
Need tried to escape greed via immigration
Need would walk to another country
Need would escape in rubber inflated rafts in shark infested waters
Need got tired of greed
Need had generations behind in education
After a while need could barely speak or write
The distance between need and greed expanded
Directly between need and greed some got enough to grow out of need and were partial need
Full need declined
Full need declined
Partial need was left to deal with full greed
Partial need started to progress and was smarter than greed
Greed although they had more education, lack of care stupefied their brain
Partial need progresses more
Greeds children are too greedy and don’t turn out
Greeds children knew no struggle their brains too were stupefied and lacked care
Partial need begins to progress some more with education
Partial need represents the only group with both education and care
In greed’s hands the people fill up with disease
In greed’s hands the people begin to die off
The only one now left to take over has enough care and enough education
Partial need takes over the country
Partial need is greed’s clean-up crew
Greed ends the world
Partial need saves it
Partial need saves need
But need looked up to greed
Partial need looked up to care and full need looked up to greed
The more need got saved, the more greed increased
The more need got saved, the lack of care, lack of education and admiration of greed, created a dangerous save
Partial need doesn’t win with need and partial need doesn’t win with greed
Greed constantly tries to kill partial need
Greed sometimes employs need to kill partial need
Greed tries to be the leader again and again
Greed gets more and more policed by partial need
Greed forms groups against partial need
Partial need fights all the problems created by greed
Partial need deals with the diseases of greed
Everyday attempts are made on partial needs life to maintain greed
Need starts to look up to partial need just a little
Need can barely look up to partial need, need needs greed
Need needs a full exit, need likes the luster of greed
Partial need promotes to build a house you can clean yourself
Partial need promotes scholarship
Greed becomes unpopular because greed did not promote scholarship
Greed becomes unpopular because greed did not promote care, safety or efficiency
Greed realizes his greed wasn’t as strong as he thought
Eventually more need move up to partial need and some to greed
More greed moves-what up or down to partial need?
Greed didn’t have care?
Greed never moves to partial need
Greed never moves to care
Greed feels he is losing power and attempts murders and defamation, but not care
Need realizes the lack of care of greed in the contrast of care from partial need
Greed starts to lose friends, fans, clients and customers
Greed over time dies off
Greed hated need
The memory of need for need is strong and never again can they hold up greed?
Well if they too want greed they have to love greed to be in a similar position? What about the similar position? Admiration sold greed’s records
How would you want to be treated?
Partial need makes wide-spread changes
Need adapts, greed does not adapt but becomes reliant on care
When partial need becomes bitter they threaten to withdraw care and greed pickets
Greed suffered from their own lack of care
All suffer under greed, even greed
Greed starts to recover from partial needs care
Greed has one objective-no need, which starts to expand based on partial needs ideas
Greed tries to copy partial need and be a leader again
From coast to coast greed tries to rob partial needs care and ideas to replace their own pure greed
Greed walks and talks defeated, greed is nearly giving up, greed is practically excommunicated
Greed tries to lead countries for which they are not a citizen
The contrast between greed and partial need is so huge, that greed develops a mental illness, they tell themselves lies
Greed’s vision was so singular that they wait for partial need to have all their ideas and like a mountain goat, wish to regain the top, they know the way and will adapt to the new ideas
Like a mountain goat, greed continues to run for office, only now people can’t even stand to vote
The memory of their lack of care is so devastating, sometimes greed gets in office because need and partial need can’t stand to vote anymore
Greed gathers all the criminals to their side and campaigns with no one in the race
Need and partial need wait for the next problems to clean- up
There were so many problems, need and partial need became excellent problem solvers
Greed generally has a singular vision, very often their there for fame or worse to rob the government or the people
Partial need fought hard and right before partial need was getting to weary
Her children were born
Partial need’s children were strong fighters, as children they became lawyers, opened newspapers and studied engineering to control greed and end greed
Partial need joined forces with other partial need, their fighting grew
They work together harmoniously, they achieve cooperation
The world changes over, they promote paradise and birth the next generations of Paradisians
