A Love Poem on The Bullwhip Effect

a minimal image showcasing the bullwhip effect curve.

I know the Stoics have told us,

to self-regulate through strong emotions,

and I know there is some merit in that,

but it’s a Friday!

And I woke up with an urge,

to lay with my head,

on your chest,

and hear you talk about,

whatever it is, that

catches your fancy today,

and trace a wave on your pecs,

and tell you about,

the bullwhip effect,

and how variability in demand,

becomes more extreme,

as you move upstream,

a supply chain.

Maybe you won’t write a paper on it after,

and I won’t have use for whatever you say,

but there is still the joy,

of learning the world with you, love.

Tell me everything, and then tell me more.
