POEM: Never Growing Owed

Here is a poem about giving and receiving freely, and about the gift economy:

Never Growing Owed

Would you like
To be
Some kind
Of soul proprietor
Of the free world
Giving and receiving
Too sides
Of a nonexistent coin
Of the realm
Paying it forward
Giving it back
Like breathing
Freely
Within
And without
Never growing owed
