A token for the ride
The gift never comes without sacrifice / there’s always an exchange / if only symbolic or metaphoric. / We tear the wrapping- / destroy the pretty paper, the ribbons and the bows. / We must give up one for the other. / oh sure, the gift is free but to take it you must pay it’s ransom. / What you pay is not to the giver, but of yourself.
