by John T. Hope
Typical of them not to notice, typical of them not to see!
It could either be lust, envy never admiration.
The pain they inflict comes from jealousy of what inspires.
Typical of them who see typical of them who want!
Their passion is really greed, a desire no love can feed.
To have and behold is that want?
To have and behold is that the need?
Typical of them that love, Typical of them who don’t!
