Broke Unable to finalize any purchase Checking For change in the last places that one searches Insufficient To the point I'm unable to ward off the throes of destitution Bankrupted By devaluing those who have not made restitution Insolvent To the point of having to fight off the urge to curse Disallowed by the prose that places value and give credit....to verse Denied Any credit accrued....maybe even unearned Reevaluation With no accounting for the time you SPENT Learning what you have learned Depreciation or Appreciation Cannot be quantified by the lack of someone.saying thanks Interest will eventually be of value Once accrued... but for now I must accept That I'm simply overdrawn at my memory banks Investment in my own value Will allow me growth In my own ... ......personal Checking account Helping me in balancing  the books Keeping me payed up and happy BY Always giving others their true valuation   So that ego doesnt become a currency That is subject to... such a devastating inflation
