What is cryptocurrency?
It’s a digital money.
Don't love me for a reason; just do
Can we forget about high cheek bones
And beautiful white smiles?
Can it not be about the shapes that join to form me?
Or the titles that precede my name?
Wield not love as a currency
See it not as a medium of exchange
Would you leave and call me mad...
If I donated the numbers in my bank account?
Or if I returned the Ferrari with a smile
and gave the estate up to the homeless?
Would you still walk this road with me?
Existence of the 8 track as I recall, was of short duration
X is a letter of the alphabet seldom used to begin a word
Telephone booths have gone the way of the dinosaurs
Internet technology has greatly altered the face real romance
Need I say that the landline telephone has been replaced by cell phones?
Currency as a medium of exchange still exists but is slowly dying
Transactions via the internet have become the preferred mode of operation
In spite of “high Tech explosion”, don’t forget to read, write, and do math
Ocean waves and winds can still wreak havoc and are not likely to change
Never give up on the past, because some dead things might be resurrected
