Aspects of money to consider:



Dear friends,

Today's prompt is a bit of a challenge for me since overall I'm not very good at ranting - unless we're talking about social injustice or why my family doesn't pick up after themselves (maybe I'm better at ranting than I think - lol).

They say you're a tool.  

Something used in the course of my everyday work.

I'd like to use you.

I'd like to know you.

Where do you come from?

Where do you go?

Why oh why do you come in so slow?
