Enough

Clamour and stammer to the next big sale,
 Cheese puff jars as big as a whale.
Commercials are running from Coast to Coast,
 To advise me of what I need the most.
The sight turns to like, then to want, then a need,
 Contentment abolished by systemic greed.
Flyers and coupons promise savings galore,
 Put it on credit and I can get more.
For stuff and for things I will misbehave,
 Purchasing my master, becoming its slave.
"It's all not enough!" my decisions proclaim,
 Is it any surprise I treat Jesus the same.
