Getting the Wherewithal (Haiku)

 

One has to question

To gain from a transaction

What's in it for me?

Giving it away

Does not buy the groceries

Nor allow respect

This is as much advice for the author to follow as well as the reader.  Only when gain is the desired outcome.

Life and Living

We live with the arrogance of youth and the intransigence of the aged.  One group morphs into the other.
