I Became a Hustler

When I discovered marbles can take marbles I became a hustler I was a pro I took marble after marble Some cried I rarely gave their marble back It was a competition Taken fairly I feel no guilt

Awesome! I had a kid follow me around because I a winner in a drawing for several beanie babies. At the time my grands were little so I was excited to bring them home. Was I supposed to feel guilty? Now, if it was just for me perhaps I would have given them up. Unfortunately no parent was correcting this kid so they followed me with eyes and lips, lusting after the items. Should I have felt guilty? Hmm…
