Amazon's Mistake Is My Up Fall
Amazon sent us a hundred and seventeen dollars’ worth of vitamins
For women over fifty; which I most certainly am.
I took them yesterday, and they perked me up.
I thought I was already perky, but I was wrong.
I was flying around as if I had taken speed.
Speedy Gonzales, except in Irish mode.
My red hair is no proof; I dye it this color.
No one has burgundy hair naturally.
But back to the original thought.
Amazon thought it had sent us puppy chow.
The invoice said fifteen dollars’ worth of puppy chow.
My husband called them; they told us to keep the vitamins.
Good thing, as I had taken several of them.
I am still hesitating about the mushroom extract.
I despise mushrooms except morels fried by my mother.
And she is dead, so this is not happening.
Someone else is probably furious
with their fifteen dollars’ worth of puppy chow.
Not my problem.
