Written for: The Sunday Muse – 100th Post!
Ah, those were the days of true
meaning. My worth was obeyed.
I was a high stakes player,
not seen by everyone. Crisp
green. Now I am ragged, torn,
and worn. With vital pieces
missing, it is only a matter
of time until number 100 loses
its significance.

I have a $100 bill tucked in a corner of a dresser drawer, may it live there forever, to be discovered by a child or grandchild one day … hopefully way in the future.

$100 used to be a lot of money, you’d rarely need a bill that large, now it’s commonly used and rarely enough.
