Live as if your life depended on it
In many ways it does
Figure into an
Equitable equation
Depending on how you look at it
Equality is the quality of
Personal sacrifice blended with persuasion
Equal to an influx is its outcome
Numbered, expanded & amended on it
Doubling the surplus of fulfillingness
So live as if your life depended on it
Or if by chance it ended on it
Nothing more need be instilled
Ultimately your life would be fulfilled
