As the plastic bills disintegrate 

We lose our faith in money

Not the same anymore 

Poison lit cigar with cash

A dollars worth not found in a dollar store

debt ridden in whose interest

Crumbling cash for charity 

Last vestiges of a bygone era

Tapping like we all suffer anxiety 

Every change a loss till clarity 

The question 

What are we invested in?


The royal we

All that be

Hardly can be invested 

In everyones benefit.

So we pick a tribe

Of parallel ideal,

Sometimes it feels 

Smaller than on paper.


It is for the appreciative few

We fight, we serve, we teach and sell

For these every effort a ripple 

To the world

Throwing pennies in a fountain.


Watch it pay dividends.
