Economy of the Gift

The fabric of transactions We know today Creates tremendous volume As capital flows everywhere You cannot argue Wealth and efficiency There is a gap Across the networks The real meaning is ascribed The reason for being alive Coded by indigenous economies The marvel of giving gifts And no possession of property Bedrock socieities Retain their transparency Built of reciprocity In the land Of money and honey What is overlooked The bonding Of Love and Economy
