Cost Analysis


Angela Duckworth, contrary to popular belief, is not worth one duck
but is rather worth one lamb
And Mary-Sue Peaworth is not worth one pea
but is rather worth one cup of potato leek soup
And Barbara Kay Vultureworth is not worth one vulture
but is rather worth one hundred vultures
all of them decked out in silver and gold
with parrot-feather headdresses
trained to sing, in chorus, the praises of Barbara Vultureworth
that’s what Barbara Vultureworth’s worth
so if you need a human sacrifice for your next Ceremony of Skulls
Mary-Sue Peaworth is the most economical.
