Gold

(a poem by someone I promised I wouldn’t mention by name)

I define lust.
I accentuate power.
I embody Gods.
I epitomize wealth.
I have been fought over for millennia.
Why is this?
Maybe it is the way I shine through their weak, empty souls.

    Tell the unnamed poet that I am glad that he picked up the poetry genes. I stopped writing poetry in my 20s. Regrettably.
