Life spiral

And so the first generation
Will strive for money
Respect, fame, security
Everything to raise themselves
From the doldrums
Everything the world praises

And so the second will see how
They forgot to enjoy life
In the pursuit
And try to inject
More and more enjoyment
Into the life of hardships
Dictated by their ancestors

And so the third generation
Born into luxury
Questions the need for hard work at all
Wonder why their predecessors
Feel so guilty about a little indulgement
And giving in wholly to hedonism
Degenrates into uselessness
