There are an infinite number of ways, oft filled with disdain
When, selfishly, one will devour a human spirit, and conceal it
While trying to strangle those around, by using rope or chain
To climb higher, above the rest, til they can, no longer, heal it
Word of the Day – Devour
FOWC with Fandango – Chain
Daily Word Prompt – Infinite

The higher they get, the lonelier they will be. Some may even not have have people going to their funeral!!! (Sorry to say that.) Your poem touches a cruel reality, Dorinda!

Fortunately, there are proportionately only a few people who are like this and climb a human chain to success. Well written, Dorinda.
