Corruption I

Abstract

Damn scourge of corruption,
that distorts and oxidizes morality,
greed is your greatest sign,
you are a plague that steals hope.

You take root in power and wealth,
your tentacles blind the human soul,
infiltrate politics and plots,
to the innocent causing pain and sadness.

Your vileness, however, does not prevail,
for justice is a strong bulwark,
that fights the evil that bewitches.

It is our obligation to fight this evil
and build a prosperous future,
for justice is a light of hope
