Adjective

(said about an animal’s foot or tail etc.) able to grasp things

[from latin, prehendere = seize ]

If you prehensile the tinsel

then pin it on the donkey

Pin the tail on the donkey

Feel the motion of it’s wagging tail

as I spin you round

like an excited puppy

Feel the dizzying circles

while your vision is wiped by a cloth

and encouraging cheers surround

from your friends who watch you stumble

Prehensile the tail to the sheet

as you would life

Life that has a blind future

and a dizzying past

Noun

too much of something

- in excess of more than [same origin as exceed]

An excess in money

is greed’s greatest wish

To have so much

that they can bathe in it

Oh money eyes

what need do you have for such an excess

That you would kill for green paper

rather than our green earth

is a saddening thought

It’s funny

That we think of green

as the purest of nature

as well as the greed of money

Two parallel forces

but still as linked as their colour

You are ruining nature for money

not for necessity

security or comfort

and most definitely not for your future generations

You have well surpassed those needs

So why?

Is it your fear of falling numbers?

Of losing what you call yours

Your privilege

You will lose more than privilege

if our earth were to burn

Money would be the least of your concerns then

So please

stop your excess in greed

Your money eyes

Help us ensure a better future
