Maslow

I need air, shelter and waterÂ
I don’t need a tvÂ
I need safety, law and orderÂ
I don’t need items, to be meÂ
The feeling of belonging, affection, achievement  Â
Friends to guide, family’s support in bereavement  Â
Self-actualization, growth and fulfilment  Â
Space to be me, humanity reconcilement  Â
Abandon the fur coats, granite marble floorÂ
For I don’t need to bathe in material galoreÂ
I’d rather pick a flower than like your picture on FacebookÂ
Stop taking pictures of take-outs and learn how to cookÂ
Take a walk, fly a kite, write a book, take a hikeÂ
Put down your phone and look at the night  Â
The stars and the moon, you don’t need to scrollÂ
Pause YouTube for a second and connect with your soulÂ
Abraham Maslow, designed a hierarchy of needsÂ
And I don’t see on these needs a need for the greedÂ
If your mind is beautiful, and the people around are tooÂ
You don’t need expensive items, because you can be youÂ
That is richer than any car, home or phoneÂ
You will learn to love life, even on your ownÂ
Because you have everything the world gives you, every dayÂ
And for all of these things you don’t need to pay
