We used to be friends
Laughter was our currency
Now tears fill the bank
When did we close our account
How could we be overdrawn
Let intelligence be your currency, your wealth and your ambition,
Elect reasoning to be your yardstick, your goal and your religion.
Promises and good wishes
all fantasy pays
The currency of commitment
—is money and blood
(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2017)
Fallen far from favor
into virtual disrepute
'Happenstance,' replaced by
random... whatever...
Is the world a better place
Political animal jailed
Naira, the world currency
Hospility tells our Nigerian story
Pseudo democrats in confusion
Our Nigerian's dreams
My currency
My words
My fortune
My thoughts
My freedom
My expression
My salvation,
—besought
(Villanova Pennsylvania: January, 2017)
Paper and coin currency is quickly going the way of the dinosaur.
Good bye piggy banks and so long to stuffing your mattress with cash anymore.
My currency, my letters,
my legacy, their toll
Inscribed within the moment
—perpetually retold
(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2018)
Humanity would have solved many of its problems had used the currency of heaven: LOVE!

I
Science may mock faith; it may be the best therapy
II
Faith is best currency - plus pilot unique!
III
Faith can feast on God amidst famine
Is it a quite annoying
new currency- bitcoins?
They are completely polar
Bitcoins and the dollar.
A dollar and bitcoin,
Like Biden and Beethoven!
Take note:
That none of my wants
Require currency grand
But in it’s stead:
Only friendly words, kind gestures
And caring touch of hand
People are trying to sleep
Yet I awakened to see
My bed in a heap
And a basket
Dare I go on now
Inbetwixed guile
And next to me an atm explodes
Currency
School day memories,
Were Maths and literacy,
Did compound interest, you see,
Before decimal currency,
Had no calculators,
Used our brains, good for later!
love like currency that changes hands,
that falls into cracks between the pavement,
protected by some, squandered by others,
unspent, overdrawn, overwhelmed
Words…
the great currency
inside my literary account
Inspiration,
the letters of credit
—freeing me to spend
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2015)
nothing, nothing
not a penny
didn't want one
you keep it
put it in your jar
can't spend it
so put your nose down and
graze the landscape
3/4's of your life
His currency was empty promises.
He doled them out like no tomorrow.
Meanwhile mountain of debt accrued.

Once spent …
there’s no tomorrow
Once spent …
all time is rife
Once spent …
your fortune tendered
Death’s currency
—is life
(Dreamsleep: December, 2023)
Met a hustler named,Funky Cold Cash,
who had a swagger his attitude matched
with buckets of ducats and white collar dollars,
i watched as his limousine crashed...

They're gleaning our God from everything.
But "in God we trust" is on our currency.
Coins will soon be replaced by bits without any faith.
Just another tool for shearing the sheep.
Richness of mind
the money no matter
A visual feast
uncountable wealth
Conceptual bullion
perceptual bitcoin
Intuitive treasure
— a fortune indwelt
(Dreamsleep: August, 2025)
Bonfires of instruments play faded relics
of song.
Hungry enough to steal,fingers beg,know longer
do they hold a lover or hope.
I am a disfigured statue vandalized by currency
of regret.
My spirit steadfast
as Swiss Franc in many stores
Foreign currency
I like a global currency
I hate to convert money
In Laos
Wars are fought and lost
Over paper money
That is worth nothing
When are they making money
Out of rice
So more people can eat when they starve
