Of all the wealth one has acquired,
Health is the best, as it can let us to stand composed,
Without any needs of helping hands,
That desperately calculating our trough,
Of health insurance or the stingily saved dollars,
Of all the vehicles that one has acquired,
Their legs are the best, as these have to be light,
Not to feel heavy with accumulation of toxicity,
Take them where they like as the wings of the birds,
With the piercing eyes and the ambition in the mind,
WE can make holes in the organs and the souls,
The souls can be bartered for the new,
After the oxidation of the good and evil alike,
The punctured body has to be kept and maintained,
The heavy piggy bags that will groan and moan,
Caressing the pain one has to feel oneself,
Of all the wealth one has acquired,
Health is the best, so we can continue to enjoy,
What we have saved and worked hard for.
