Sacrifice for Wealth?

You stood in the bank of the river,

What an enormous money you emptied,

Asking your servants to watch,

For the appearance of the goddess of wealth.

                                  

Head for head,the gift of the mermaid spirit,

King of evil go behind me.

What have your servants seen who came fearful and cold,

Narrating the activities of the goddess they saw.

                                      

The secret of deceitful exchange, and magic,

That brought the human race to a state of topsy-turvy.  

You rejoiced as they told their fearful story,

Boasting that your sacrifice is now accepted.

                                                  

As you prepared to exit the bank of the river,

Thundered a loud voice beyond your expectation,

"Guide your heart with all diligence"

"He who controls his heart directs his destiny".

                                          

"This is where they keep the souls of men",

"To the spirit you yield your heart,

"In your short planetary journey,

The spirit remains your master and owner of your soul.
