Realities fixed price

Realities of life will not relent

idealistic hopes cannot compete.

Begrudgingly we pay full recompense

Requisite of life's payments to meet.

We seek to bargain price or new contract

the offer is rejected ...out of hand.

We have nothing to offer this merchant

realities fixed price he'll not amend.

Seems those with a "clue" dicker and those without are just too damn self-busy to care about what really matters - ya know?

Yes i have noticed many people fall into one of these groups.I have tried with our 8 grandchildren to help them become aware of what used to be common sense' So much nonstop nonsense in their world now.

Wow! You sum it all up wisely in the first two lines. The rest are treats. You write with openness and precision.
