Were I granted a single wish,
I would be so selfish
and think of no one else.
My greed would dictate and swell.
All the whales and dolphins in the ocean
could fend for themselves.
And the homeless masses could suffer
countless tragedies and degradation.
Social injustices would go unchecked
much to humanity's peril.
Fuck world peace
and let all the impoverished children starve.
I would horde my treasure away
with avarice glee,
and let the Earth spiral downward
in it's own man-made hell.
And far removed from blighted creation,
I would make my rapacious wish,
that your eyes could still look upon me
the way that they used to.
