Lust

My humble opinion does not draw a distinction between sex and wisdom - either way you're screwed


 Desire how refreshing the scent 

Never ending and can't be spent

Loathsome to all who repent

Life giving without regret

Then age alters time and intent

Makes room for a life better spent


Lust takes many forms: political, economic, carnal, vanity - anything that man desires can be fueled by lust

Lust is an intense desire for something.[1][2] Lust can take any form such as the lust for sexual activity (see libido), money, or power; but it can also take such mundane forms as the lust for food (see gluttony; as distinct from the need for food) or the lust for redolence (when one is lusting for a particular smell that brings back memories). Lust is similar to, but distinguished from, passion, in that properly ordered passion propels individuals to achieve benevolent goals whilst lust does not.
