You are already rich,
You just likely want to be richer.

You are likely to be rich in breath,
In quantities beyond what is needed.
Even now,
You can exhale and inhale as you please.
What a gift.
Should we start counting?
You are likely living in plenty.
You already possess some belongings,
Mostly once purchased.
You are living in money already, even if it's not enough.
You have a lot of things.
Should we start counting?
You are likely around a breathtaking view,
Where the grass is very green,
Beautiful scenery you can enjoy,
Maybe yours, maybe your neighbour’s,
With leaves in abundance.
Should we start counting?
You are likely rich in thought,
Your mind is very powerful,
A complex machine that is extraordinarily bright,
Generating thousands of possibilities every day.
That's much.
Should we start counting?
You just likely want to be richer.
You are already rich,
Or are you not?
