Get To Get

When you get what you get
You regret what you don't get

We don't cherish what we get
But we crib upon what we don't get

Such selfish our life has become
Always we say its less, whatever we get

Never do we spare a thought for the unfortunate, who don't get
But multiply our cravings to ensure nothing's left that we won't get

Some day the 'get' cycle will halt,
That is the time we'll realise the price
Of what we did get
