Exact Change, please

A simple trip to the grocery store,

Take a friend to keep you on track.

Together you go through the list,

Getting just a few things extra.

Cart heavy with your purchases.

Together you place them on the conveyer.

The cashier rings our list:

A box of Liberty,

A bag of Justice,

5 packs of Rights,

Spices of Art,

Several cans of Imagination,

And a half cart of Freedom.

Together we pay,

Together we bag,

Together we can fix the wrong,

Together we have the ability to change the economy,

Together we providc,

And exact change.
