Over and Under

Too little is a venom cured instantly by giving
Too much is a poison healed only by slow removal

Rare steak can be simply cooked a bit more
Burnt steak is hard to salvage for the mouth.

Hunger is solved through simply eating more food.
Obesity is mended through tiring exercise and diet.

Not enough meds for that headache? Take more pills.
Quadruple overdose means dialing 911.

If the sea levels are under, we get more real estate.
If higher, say goodbye to friends in Japan and LA.


The poor can be satiated with little gratuity.
Problems of the rich need more than money.
