If all things are equal,
by what formula
does one deduce
the simplest?
I suppose
one could argue that,
when every thing in the carton
is fruit
it is easy
to pick out the pear
from the apples.
But what about the fact
that I really wanted
an orange?

Very good!
Love the twist -- it's a near perfect write for this contest! Best of luck in this contest my friend, sorry we are going head to head here! But I guess competition always brings out the best in us?
