Deep in the jungle
Hidden away
There is gold
A city
A peaceful city
A golden city
El Dorado
The capital of the Golden Empire
Six cities she rules
But none as rich as she
El Dorado
In the day she blazes like the sun
At night she glows soft as the moon
With all this wealth comes...
A monster, though
A monster that lives in all of us
Greed
People wanted to take her riches
So they searched the jungles for her
But El Dorado, cunning El Dorado, hid away
Many have scoured the Earth for her
Hoping to take her legendary wealth
But
El Dorado has a greater treasure
And those who know that,
Some of the greatest treasures
Do not glitter or shine.
They will find El Dorado
A poem about greed
