DE BEER RING



One has not awarded enhancements on behalf of  spiritual self
Reward one's material greed at the detriment of nations health
Courts injustices, liberties, plunder brazenly, a way without stealth
Diplomats' morals dip low mercy not even amongst themselves
Assets clawed, bleeds an abyss unfurled
Valued commodity in a narcissistic world
A price, lest be scoured
Cost priceless lives devoured
