What is the difference, between a man and a child?
The former works, while the latter runs wild.
Is economic activity, the root of all evil?
For earning livelihood, we trade our souls to the devil?
Questions like these, perplex a child's mind,
As to why we cant share wealth, like a tiffin and be kind?
There's enough on this earth, to make everyone content,
But as we grow up, we cease giving, for others dime or cent.
As we grow over time, we are not just receiving but giving,
We get focused on our own, towards others develop misgiving.
The innocence of childhood, morphs to a pragmatic attitude,
Lazy and fun play gets short shrift, work ethic gets undue latitude.
Enough of this narcissistic philosophizing, come to terms with how the real world works,
Get ready for boring, meaningless work, as you are groomed to become glorified clerks.
