All of this

We don't get to decide what counts as treasure.

All of this
Has nothing to do
With how many binders
Accumulated
In the closet,
How much grain
In the storehouse,
How much money
We leave behind.

All of this
Is not about
How much,
How many,
Even
Who we know
Or don’t know.

All of this
Is simply
All the possibility
Its realization.

All of this
Is
Our treading
Our dancing
Our writing
Our seeing
Our hearing
Our caring about
Our loving
That one thing
Which no one else
May even notice.

All of this
Is treasure.
