Jack Ellison Poet Narrative

If Kisses Were Units of Currency

Had a crazy dream last night

Dreamt I was living in a world

Where kisses were units of currency

First thing I thought of

Was that cute li'l cashier at Walmart

To pay for a $50 item

Would require 50 kisses plus the federal tax

Bringing the total to 60 smooches

I would start shopping for all kinds of stuff

That I didn't actually need

I'd even buy ladies lingerie like bras and knickers

And give them away to friends and neighbours!

In all likelihood I'd go broke

But man, would I be a happy camper

Going to bed now to hopefully pick up

Where I left off...

Tim Smith January 13, 2015 at 11:11 AM I think I would be standing in line with you waiting for the store to open. Jack Ellison January 13, 2015 at 11:52 AM Us males eh!!!

Carol Eastman January 13, 2015 at 7:53 AM UH Jack... Think you need to be certified for quality and not quantity... or else you will wear out your smoocher. I know I pay more than $3000 a month in bills... Dragon said he pays for every thing in carpenter Troll work... But what he owes needs rebuilding... and most of who he owes, say they'd rather kiss a Star Wars wookie, Which hurt Dragons feelings... After all his kisses don't hurt much... Tho they are in the hot and steamy catagory. Come here Dragon. I'll give you a kiss! We Wove You! Jack Ellison January 13, 2015 at 8:04 AM Okay maybe I need to rethink this! LOL 3,000 kisses... my old kisser would probably get callouses! Love, (I'm leaving out the kisses this time)... Jack
