Covet Poem by Eric Niehoff

Covet



He has more, I have less
A wallet without purpose

Devoid of success
Of satisfaction
Separated by an imaginary line
Built on luck
And circumstance

Hard to achieve
Through sacrifice
Easier just to take
And gain without merit

Dwell on jealousy?
Or use it as motivation?
