Constancy Trumps Currency
Currency runs us,
binds cuffs of dependancy to us
We become
what we're paid to do
Or transform
according to the clock
Currency discusses what's needed
what's expected, agreed
A hand out is a hand filled
According to job description
Consider a job done half heartedly, half completed
If payment is insufficient
Currency comes with requirements, fake smile tense
Currency goes when done
Society is sewn on the premise of currency as successful
Tender, deals, tenures, exchange
The factor I'm lacking in my proximity is authenticity
Heart warming mode of constancy
Flow of favour stemming from desire, somewhere genuine
Reassurance of supply running two ways
Constancy is reflex, needs understood
Without discussion
Voluntary giving, natural provision
Without thinking, gladly
Constancy is home, is known, trust innate
Entity built securely
Stays
