We Alone
We alone can devalue gold
by not caring
if it falls or rises in the marketplace.
Wherever there is gold
there is a chain, you know,
and if your chain
is gold
so much the worse
for you.
Feathers, shells
and seas-shaped stones
are all as rare.
This could be our revolution:
To love what is plentiful
as much
as what is scarce.
