The price you pay

oh! what a pain
that one must pay
a price for things
that he must have.

for a high price bargain,
too low stay away.
sometimes just be content
and satisfied with halve.

but again and again
if you know how to say
the right thing at the right time
then you survive the carve.

have a scale up you sleeves
before you drown, or go insane.
