Greedy cats, fat cats

Appetites Of The Top Cats

High above city streets glowing at night

Top cats sit feeding where power burns bright

Tailored in black with their sharp polished teeth

Predators hiding beneath silk beneath

They feast on ambition and swallow the weak

Scenting out fear every time people speak

Boardroom kings ruling from glittering heights

Turning whole lives into profits by night

Appetites endless as oceans in storm

Never enough to keep hunger warm

Money stacks higher while morals decay

Greed has a talent for eating souls away

They smile for cameras with elegant grace

Still something savage lives under each face

Eyes cold as winter despite all the gold

Hearts growing emptier more than they hold

Workers collapse while the top cats still dine

Drinking old wines that cost more than lives

Somewhere a mother counts coins in the rain

While towers glow bright from another man’s pain

Yet every empire eventually cracks

Power grows heavy and slowly fights back

Even the richest can choke on desire

Watching their kingdoms collapse into fire

The appetites of the top cats stay vast

Consuming the future while worshipping fast

Still history whispers the same bitter truth

Nothing devours the world more than ruthless greed
