Be stingy be tightfisted with your life.
Own the journey. Survive the strife
Each ethos charted with head held high
Each breath accounted for when you die
Be stingy be ungenerous with your scruples
Own your faith. With belief and love bliss quadruples
Each tenet you subscribe must be applied
Let the epitome of truth and justice be your guide
Be stingy be sparing with the words bespoken
Own your responses. Each word is a token
Of your character and credence. Your attitude and action
Spoken word has repercussion practice precaution
Be charitable with your material possessions
Own your generosity. Imprint the correct impressions
Wealth is transient. It won’t accompany in the grave
What you give away will earn you more than you gave
Be big-hearted with your feelings and grudges
Own your compassion. Forgive the prods and nudges
When you let go you actually set yourself free
Extra baggage always comes with a very hefty fee
