Oh, The Instant Gratification
Of 'Abundance'; All Creatures
Big And Small,
Evolving Still,
For Intermittent
Gratification; Human
Pandemic Gone CuLTuRaLLY
Rogue, Particularly in the United
States As 4 Percent of the Globe's Population
of Humanity Selfishly And Most Efficiently Capitalistically
Uses Money To Consume 40 Percent of the Resources Used;
Yet It's True, Self Fulfilling
Hunger of Soul,
Only Comes
From Within
After Basic Needs
Are Met; Yes, Basically We
Are Eating Our Own Face in
'Zombie Apocalypse' Ways As This Home
Now Of Nature Is US; We May Not Expect
To Keep Eating Our Own Face out of Balance
And Expect to Continue to LiVE iN THE Only
Home We Are Evolved to Breathe A World Without
Bees Just one
Insect the
End of Life
As We Know it at Least...
A World Without Flowers For
Those Who No Longer Appreciate Beauty With NDD/GDD Nature
Deficit Disorder/God Deficit Disorder, Same Damned DiSEaSE NoW
The Beauty oF iT ALL A World Already Gone Lost for Many Indeed...
i Tender A Whole Lot of Money, More Than i'll Ever Spend; Perhaps Enough
For my Wife, If She Lives in Accordance With Her Allowance; i Save Face of Nature (RealGod)
By Not Using it to Consume Nature (US) Out of Balance by Building A Bigger Home or Fancier
New Car or Boat or Camper to Find A Home Displacing Wildlife in my Back Yard... Well Yes
Money is Okay
As Long as
We Do Not
Use it To Consume our Face...
What Good Is it to Eat Anything
Without A Soul of Love; None That
i See; None That i See to Truly BREaTHE NoW

Ya Sure Can't Digest Money; Yet
Ya Sure Will Live For Money...
Rich Wanna Be Dad,
Poor Mom;
Poor Soul,
Much Larger Soul;
What's the Difference;
My Mother Totally Satisfied Whole Complete
Enough Living on 500 Dollars A Month Social
Security Pay Refusing Even the Supplemental
Part She Was 'Entitled' Too As Well; My Father on
The Other Hand, Who Didn't Cash in His Retirement
At Age 49 To Finish His College Degree, Like my Mother Who
Got Tired of Editing for the Government Wanting to Move into Social
Work That She Did the Years Before Social Security Age Enough at 500 Dollar A Month...
Yes, on the Other Hand, my Father Who Left When i Was 3, to Find A Woman to Make Money
More than Raising Children, Retiring At Full Social Security Pay and 46 Years of A Law Enforcement
Career, Once Longest Serving Deputy Sheriff in Florida at Age 69; Spending His Last Years of Life; All
81 And Some Months, Buying Weekly 500 Dollars Worth of Lottery Tickets As He Could Never Make Enough
Money to
Get Rich
Like His Half
Jewish Brother
(My Father's Father
A Rather Famous
Infamous Irish
X-Catholic Priest;
Who Left His Family too)
Whose Jewish Father Was
Also A Cop Like My Father's
Identical Twin Brother Yet He (My Father's Twin)
Then Married into Money Quick, Home All Paid Off...
He Got to Do Basically What he Wanted to Do Self-Employed
too as My Half Jewish Uncle Got to get Rich Off Selling Vacuum
Cleaners, Buying A Fabulous View Home on the Emerald Gulf Coast Shalimar Bay Pointe...
True About As Close As Ya Get to the French Riviera in the PanHandle of Florida; All Emerald Green Waves
Of Peaceful Water And Overgrown Beach With Condo's Taking the Breath of Nature Farther And Farther Away...
Yep 'Rich Dad' Wanna
Be And Poor Mamma Who
Only Cared About Loving Others...
Particularly Her Children And 'the Church' of Course...
True, Her Love Much More Restricted than Mine for Others
Of Course As Those Walls Exclude So Many Others Different For Sure...
Anyway, Money Will Buy Ya Financial Independence; i Surely Bought that
For me By Basically Forgoing A Consumer Based American Dream As i Wasn't
Gonna Be a Slave to Someone Else's Life Play In Corporate or Government Story my Entire
Damned
Life For Sure...
So My Green Dollar
Bill Flavored Rich Dad Wanna Be
So Terrified When i fell Ill in Mid-Life
(Thinking i Might Ask Him For Help then)
Almost Dropped Dead Then on the Phone
When i Informed Him After Keeping One Wife,
One Home, Same Cars for 15 Years or So And Not all
The Homes and Four Marriages He Did Mostly As Apartments
For Decades too; even Married to the Same Woman Twice too;
As There is a Certain Value in Emotional Intelligence of Love Still Now
(Yes, at 28 Years Younger, 'Foolish Poor Start Son' After 3 College Degrees, Saved 6 Times
More Than Rich Dad Wannabe) For others Unconditionally Expressing that too Priceless Indeed;
All the Colors of
Love to Give
And Share
Free Caring Unconditionally;
And True; Yet i Went Quiet
too Much of my Government
Career of Working With Computers
And Things Toward The End Away from
People too... My Mother Always Said Happiness comes
From Within; She Was 100 Percent Correct; It takes Very Little
to Get 'Buy' When One Lives A Life of Green Within Instead of
(And For me Moving, Connecting, And Co-Creating is Key)
Valuing
Things
(STUFF)
More;
Including
Always Looking
Forward to the Next
Capitalism Lottery Pay-off
In Life; Oh, to Be Free At Least
From Making more money; Truly Worth
HeLL ON Earth Then for 66 Months too...
All Those Year Spent Working For the Government With Retired Military Folks Then Blessed
With A Guaranteed Pay Check From the Government, Never Really 'Under The Money Gun',
Every Month for Just 20 Years of Service; Yep, i did 25, And 8 Other Years of Paid Work;
Never Going to Bloody War At Least As Civilian; Where Close to 40 Years Will Come
For Full Retirement in Less than a Year Now; Yet i Already Have Enough Now; it'll Be
Just More to Pad the Retirement of my Wife; my Mother's Philosophy of Life Is Still
Forever Loving Life Now Free For me;
And My Father's
A Scratch-Off
Drop Dead
Ticket Then
of Life; Yet Indeed,
At Least it Gave Him
Something to Live for;
Like People Who Worship
After Death More Than Life;
True, at Least my Mother Wasn't too Afraid to 'go' Either...
It's All Relative, Really, Whatever Ticket Buys Us Paradise Now or Just Surviving;
Yet Best Part of All Is For Those Who Manage Their REAL Breathing Soul to make Heaven
Now Real Within....
True Whole
Complete
Enough
Within NoW;
It's Hard to
Wanna Eat Much
of Anything When
One is Always Empty
Within, Truly Always Starving For As Real As Real Gets
Now; A Currency of Love, Pay Rate, And Pay Grade Same the
Very, Very, Best Life Within REAL Soul Offers to me, to Give, Share, Care, For Free...

the song doesn't go into who "we" are, does it? because jeff bezos won't live to the point where he needs to eat his money anyway. The remaining Koch brother definitely not. I might. my nephews pretty certainly will.
