Sin a destraction that can be easly left alone, but those three men prove the point that it isn't as easy as it looks. :) Although it indeed in death, I do truly think that ways a happy ending,3 less evils in the world. Good write.

Good story line, greed and averice are the stumbling blocks of the world to-day keep on writting but watch out for those typo's they brek up the flow gave it nine Chris
Nice storyline, good philosophy, delievered in a not very contemporary poetry format.Could however make a good children's poem if rythms, rymes and correct spellings are inserted appropriately. Nice attempt though. Keep trying.
