Buy low sell high they say

There are more options than I can count

On the menu

How

Am I supposed to know

What to do with myself

What is the most moral

The most pleasure-maximizing

The best for society

Whatever will give me peace

I guess I’ll just have

The octopus

Because I like the way it tastes

Even though my coworker told me

They’re intelligent creatures

And we really shouldn’t eat them

So when the waiter asked

If I would also like to try the brussel sprouts

I said okay

Even though they were 28 dollars

I guess you pay for the view of the ocean

From the rooftop of the resort
