A Cheap Thing

My love is cheap.
No gauntlet of trials
No mysterious maze
No blood sacrifice

An honest smile
A unique style
A glimpse of self
Will suffice

A cheap thing
My love
So many can afford
The modest price

The cheaper it gets
The closer to freedom
Like all the best things
In life

I love the message of this poem! And the way it flows so simply and naturally... I almost missed the subtle rhyming, but there it is!
(I was going to suggest starting an
international association of cheap lovers, but no, we would be misunderstood...)

Seems priceless with no strings or obligations to me!

Reminds me a little of Paul Simon's "Here is my song for the asking" - if that's the title. It's the main line anyway.
