Believers give God
a portion of His abundance
not as a sacrifice, but as a person
who helps neighbours and fellow villagers
spares pack animals and allows butterflies
to flutter and who is not only sweet
to stuffed animals
but builds fountains
to water the noble horses
Unbelievers decide for themselves
whether they sell their yield
what they eat and what they share
God and greedy people too
choose themselves who benefits
what the henchmen get
for taking, and the front men
for hiding the abundance
in the heavenly clouds of Moneyland
