Contention has sold me a used psyche swallowing my pride pricy;
Problem with this is disputation disharmony discords hot and spicy;

Quite ambidextrous is this pricy sign,
Depending on which number it’s aligned.
Symbol of comfort or manifest of need?!
Held by helping  hand or arms of evil greed?!
Can accumulate immeasurable wealth, 
Can’t buy fair freedom, peace of mind and hale health.

Miss Maribel Seward had an odorous pet skunk
She developed an allergy to the way it stunk
The antidote was pricy
It was pepper and spicy
But Miss Maribel could not smell it when she was drunk.

Jesus said, "It is more blessed to give than to receive".
Notwithstanding, a life of giving one's self sacrificially is pricy.
Indeed, a 'self-giving life' is rewarding but also costly.
The air in that sphere of life is like mountain air.
The higher one goes the thinner the air becomes.
People in such a high zone are rare breeds.
But thinner air does not mean a bitter life.
A giving life is by far the sweetest life.
