currency
they try to turn everything
into a currency
but regardless
time itself will steal it
these markets all thrum
with the commerce
of youth sex power wealth
the turbo charged engines
of desire
your value measured
in the stock exchange
weighed in the balance
of celebrity
algorithms buying and selling
our attention
but what
if anything
remains sacred?
tears?
love?
birdsong?
