NEGOTIATION
The war should be over by now,
But every time you surrender,
The terms are changed,
Hostilities re-commence,
And you get worn out and give up,
Again.
Soon you will have nothing left.
The war should be over by now,
But every time you surrender,

And you get worn out and give up,
Again.
Soon you will have nothing left.

Dammit, Kumar, I think you're in my head again.... it's downright spooky!
This is good food for thought for me right now.

Kelly, I'm glad I can provide some mental sustenance. The situation with my loved one is heartbreaking, even moreso because there is a daughter involved who at times seems starved for attention.
