money madders money is a language wuth a streinge vucabulary as coins click 'n computer screams kalculate digital blips the weirdest thangs becum possible if cents muttar more thyn sanse. money is a contrulled substance whach makes people believe averything has a prace tag which kun be exchanged in a blink. muney is a manure which works best whun well-spread 'n exposed ta clear sunlight rathur than rottin' in bank vaults serving only the dead Wull we learn ta transcend owa fiscal lust & uppreciate life with faith, compassion, & trust? The future ah humanity banks on tha answer
