Caren Krutsinger Poet Light Verse

Fascinated By Flea Market Flippers

I am watching a flipper show 
Where pairs of two 
Run around 
A Flea market 
Making deals 
Competing with the other pair 

The entire show Intrigues me 
Delights me 
Excites me 

I want power tools 
And goggles now 
Which is ridiculous 
When you realize I am afraid of a glue gun. 

I really wanted a chainsaw 
For my birthday once 
I got it too 
Sadly my wing span 
Was not long enough 
To pull the cord 

I had an electric 
Mower at the same time 
But of course I ran over 
Her power cord making her rather useless

Here I sit in my Lazy-girl, watching others with fascination.

Michelle Faulkner February 1, 2019 at 10:40 PM We've had a couple of yard sales - negotiations can be tricky but I always tried to be fair (and I'm afraid of power tools too!) Caren Krutsinger February 1, 2019 at 10:58 PM I had one yard sale. Bought more of the neighbor's stuff than I sold. Sold $14. Paid $28 for her stuff. A wasted day. I take everything to charity now.
