Change

long time + owed change = bad deal

Here's your change.

Counted by the computer,

     owed to you in the transaction,

So as to ensure that

     you did not to pay too much

     for something you must need,

     something you earned.

Is it luxury or is it right?

Is it a condition of our souls?

     That we are so eager to make deals,

          all the while expecting change to come,

     As part of the deal we have made;

For what is for sale?

     Except what can be earned;

For what can be earned?

     Except what we have to work for;

For what do we work for?

     Except survival and luxury;

And that hasn't changed

     for a very,

           very,

        very,

     very,

long time.
