Purchasing Power

It’s a steal, good value-for-money,
The reasonableness is evaluated by him.
His job is to rate the products that harden into being,
Escaping the authorities, escalating into other products.
The bountiful world of money-and-toil,
Gardens lavish with flowers of trouble
Are innermost in our happiness,
Capital is all that is desired in the breast.
We are proud as humans to walk the Earth
In search of food to equip us from our tortures.
The path to a good purchase is to refrain from cheating
And undoing the deeds previously invoked by the good soul.
It is essential we buy products we decide to employ
For the furthering of our goals.
