Cashless

They call it cashless
All this swiping
   Chip and pin
   Touch in
But they're hyping
It up

It's still all money
That we use
   Though spend our pay
   In a different way
Now we lose
Track of it

And we spend our cash
So much faster
   Focusing our minds
   On bargain finds
That it no longer lasts a
Full month

So falling short
We are falling prey
   To top rate lenders
   Credit vendors
Who ensure we stay
Cashless

But what about a world
Without money
   A chance to share
   To take care
Of family
Without a price

The world could work
As a team
   No hunger or war
   No rich, no poor
What a dream
Truly cashless
