We’ve all spent many weary years
playing “mother may I” to the myth of money.
It’s time to stop.

Who puts a value on our life force?
On our creative impulses and actions?
Who puts a value on our love,
or on our skill, our care, our rapt attention?
Who says we have no value
except what we can monetize?

Each one of us is infinite,
Each has the power to bless,
Each one is worthy of the things we need
to keep us satisfied and well

We have the power
to draw our own true web
to join us hand in hand across the earth.
We don’t need money systems to sustain us,
for that which gives us life
gives us our worth.
