VALUE

" If you don't know your own value, somebody will

tell you your value and it'll less that you're worth"




Not a piece of merchandise

On a trial run,

Not a human resource

To be used or to be won!

 

Not a common sample

To be marketed and sold,

Not a faulty substance

To be forced into a mould.

 

Not a simple stereotype

To compete and to compare

Against a lifeless robot,

With elaborate software!


But a chosen creature,

Conscious and alive …..

Trying to find a footing,

Struggling to survive….

 

In a world that seems to  measure

The weak against the strong….

Where perfection is the power

To be right – and never wrong!

 

It’s time to reimagine,

To reset the cornerstone….

To go from being uncounted….

To being valued–to being known!
