This is a very well-written and thoughtful work, Sandra. I especially like the final words 'providential denouement'! If I may make one suggestion. The narrator of the poem (persona) has an excellent vocabulary and grasp of the language. However, 'Nothing surprises me no more' clangs out of tune (unless that is what you had in mind) . Changing it to 'Nothing surprises me anymore' might correct that. :)

Why do some people just not get that greed doesn't bring happiness. In this throw away society people want more and more. No wonder you wonder and I wish more people would. Excellent piece Sandra. 10/10

sandra..an excellent write...the sadness this brooding gives is immense..the wealth within every human is not even felt...they call it a fast world as if the days and nights have become shorter
