Sue Mason Poet Free verse

Charged

Its plastic
its plastic
just a little plastic
ring it up ...
how fantastic!
Go shop
spend, spend, spend
for in the end
all you need
is just a little plastic!
When it all comes due,
you don't need money ...
just grab a different card
and find a way, honey
to charge it!
Yeah charge it, charge it
get your fill
of everything
with beautiful plastic!!
Oh my, oh my
what shall we buy?
Dahling, its simply bombastic,
try the green card
or maybe its the blue
whats are limit ...
(the sky to you).
Yes, its only plastic
so get charged!

October 25, 2008 at 8:29 AM I like the fast pace of this poem, fitting for the message of the poem. Too many forget that eventually the plastic needs to be paid for. Thank you for your contribution to "Tidbits." I concluded the poem if you would like to check out the finished piece. Let me know if you see anything that may need correcting. Keep on writing! Karen
