Money

Charley Edward Hinkel 1979 (Canton, OH)



Money needed, wanted, some to blow,
Some to save!
Some from here, some from there, much it comes from everywhere.
Coins and paper,
plastic card with numbers
on it...
well, it's like paper,
cotton I suppose.
Some other mix as well.
Gold, silver, copper, nickel
so on, a mite,
Cryptocurrency, as well.  
What's the news?  A stock market, did we win?
The peso, greenbacks, loot, or cheddar.
Slap you some skin?  Okay, I'd love to
share some skins.
We all have "know how"
these days.
