A small token, a tithe, or less
given to the provider, the creator
in acknowledgement of the provided;
a living ritual of the faithful,
more than the coins, the bills, the checks,
is the act of offering, the giving back
the returning to service
of the gifts given
money for the coffers,
more the giver than the receiving
to thank the provider
for the provision
of our needs
