Darwin

One day Darwin woke up
and she stopped believing money.
Her accountant thought her crazy,
and her banker thought her funny.

But the next day half the world woke up
and shared this new belief.
So they started trading favours for favours
to offer each other relief.

The next day bankers woke up
and they started feeling human.
It had all just been a detestable dream
where the numbers had consumed them.

As their nightmares slowed
a new kind air flowed
and designed a fair code
to build a world that shared growth.

All it took was a reprieve
from the shared myths believed,

and a new world was thriving and blooming.
