Compromise On Aisle Three

I've been wondering
what's easier
Giving up?
Or giving in?
Because
I want to do a little of
both.
I need to weigh the cost
evaluate
Want to get my moneys worth
after all.
But wait,
it seems
Giving up
and giving in
are really the same
thing.
Looks like compromise 
is on sale this week.
Too good a deal to 
pass up
if you ask me.
