We Alone
-Alice Walker
1 We alone can devalue gold
2 by not caring
3 if it falls or rises
4 in the marketplace.
5 Wherever there is gold
6 there is a chain, you know,
7 and if your chain
8 is gold
9 so much the worse
10 for you.
11 Feathers, shells
12 and sea-shaped stones
13 are all as rare.
14 This could be our revolution:
15 To love what is plentiful
16 as much as
17 what is scarce.
