Penny for my thoughts
          	
          	We toil and moil day in day out for a piece of paper
          	Hopes, dreams and ambitions are all weighed,valued and fulfilled because of this piece of paper
          	Our dignity, value  and worth are all balanced with this piece of paper
          	Health, laughter, joy and peace of mind are determined by this piece of paper.
          	This piece of paper has caused the less fortunate to die, grieve and leave in despair because of it
          	Ooh why piece of paper, should I be valued by you 
          	Ooh why piece of paper do you have to take away humanity and replace it with vile, unhuman and grief
          	We live by this piece of paper, the food we eat to sustain our bodies is because of this piece of paper. The houses that shelter us and keeps us warm is  in exchange of this piece of paper.
          	Surely something man made not even God's creation or nature's doing, why should it dictate how we live in our lifetime. It's disgusting that it has to dictate us even in our death. The mortuary needs this piece of paper to keep ur body, ur funeral needs the piece of paper to purchase food, coffin, priests and certificate of death even the land ur are laid in. I understand people have different customs and I respect them I am talking of my custom.
          	  Ooh why piece of paper do want my soul, body and spirit until nothing is left of me and even that nothing you still want it.
          	   As I travel through lifetime I hope you fade away and value is placed where due not you. be gone and may your remnants be dust in the wind on a scorching desert. 
          	 A woman  can only hope 
          	
          	From the elixir my soul feeds on.
          	
          	
          	Piece of paper - money

Hello Qkshekinah! 
          
          Sorry, I don't want to intrude, but I noticed you being a follower and reader of fantasy and romance authors. Maybe you’d like to give the supernatural fantasy-romance ‘Regent’s Blood’ by M.J. Stephanos a chance as well. I’m a fan of her book and I think she deserves more readers and followers. 
          
          Best Regards justanutsoreolover
