Where do you stand?

   How much,
         Does it take,
      to make it?

   How much,
         Do you lose,
     Before giving in?

       How much,
          Do you give,
        to be considerate?

       How much,
             Do you keep,
          to be greedy?

       On the grand scale,
                     of 1s and 10s,

              Everyone,
                   just wants to be,
                             Comfortable.

            However,
                 "Comfortable"
        Is not universally understood,
                           
                So I must ask,
                         The opening,
                      Question.
