Life Is a Smorgasord For Most
For most life is a smorgasbord of choice,
With only the occasional meal at a waited table to test the power of the voice.
So, for most the expectation should not be wait and see,
But rather the early bird gets all there is to see.
How many times have you heard those at a waited table,
Request something more palatable.
If you want a life of disappointment,
Your table will be reserved for every moment,
To reduce the need for movement,
With your choices decided by those who prefer a smorgasbord,
And get to taste what you rejected,
Without a dollar being wasted.
Of course with a new fast food joint springing up every day,
One has to bring self-discipline into play,
If we want freedom of choice to have a say.
