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
