Don'T Need...

Lotsa' things I don't need no more...
A clock, a calendar, a schedule book...
An income tax form...
A bank account...
A Hallmark Card...
Insurance, a credit card
A book of stamps...
A pocketful of starlight...
A moon for romance...
So many things I once deemed 
of great worth,
Now I have no need for, why, my God,
Did these things once seem,
the core of my life on Earth?
