Let Me Go

Am tired of eight to five
Honesty as a virtue
receives a torture
In oppressor's hands

Let me go engage
In another trade,
make it fast;
be celebrated
be honoured
be recognized

My finger will loot treasuries
my hands will cart away reserves
the bigger my booty
the many my titles

Let's applaud dishonesty
do not ask me why.

Dear,
Another great piece written by your pen.This is how the world does go and that they no longer cares about the means as long as they r gonna reach what they want.
