The Big Idea – Act 3

        RIVAL 1:
        Correct me if I’m wrong,
        But you’re not very strong.

        ENTREPRENEUR:
        No, I’m not like your friend:
        On my skill I depend.

        RIVAL 2:  Say what?

        RIVAL 1:
        You don’t intend to shirk
        Any communal work?

        ENTREPRENEUR:
        No, the rules are quite clear:
        Pitch in or don’t stay here.

        RIVAL 1:
        But if you do your share,
        You won’t have time to spare.

        ENTREPRENEUR:
        No, I’d just do the stuff
        That wasn’t very tough.

        RIVAL 1:
        Ha! Now, that’s not allowed;
        You’re just one of the crowd.

        ENTREPRENEUR:
        But my best game is played
        By finding things to trade.

        RIVAL 1:
        Sorry, but being tired
        Is all you’ll have acquired.

        ENTREPRENEUR: (sighs)
        At least I’ll have a base,
        And ample storage space.
