People seem to have
Obsession with luxury
Pursuing luxury
Selling luxury
Seeking satisfaction
With luxury
But what exactly is luxury
That has many people hooked
Addicted to and dependent on
If one has everything
Necessary to live
Then anything beyond necessity
Be considered luxury
Not to be confused with privilege
As flying is not luxury but a privilege
While flying first class is luxury
Like driving a car may be necessity
While leather upholstery is not
Thus be considered a luxury
A bigger house
More expensive car
Brand name clothes
All luxury beyond necessity
Which is to say
Subtracting all that is necessary
From any one's possessions
All that which remains
Is unnecessary
Serving no purpose
Other than false sense
Fleeting moment
Of satisfaction and happiness
For that delusion
People pay thousands
Tens of thousands
Even millions
To acquire luxury
Forever in pursuit
Like an addict seeking
Next high
But the soul seeking luxury
Cannot be satisfied
As the soul that is spiritual
Cannot be filled with materials
But only with the assurance
Of life everlasting
Through death and resurrection
Of Jesus Christ
By repentance of our sins
Asking of forgiveness
And accepting Jesus Christ
As Lord and Savior
Only then can a man
Woman or child
Live in true luxury
Of knowing that even
When some say all man dies
But not every man really lives
The real truth lies in
That all man dies
But not every man goes to heaven
