The Bill of Goods

The merchandise looked perfect Longing to have this master's work Everything about it would make my life complete The legs were perfect even and balanced Even the color of the merchandise glowed and I desired It spoke to me of how it would fit in a nook in my lonely life I planned and planned how I could have it Dreaming day and night The day finally arrived It was delivered to my home but where I placed it The whole area it consumed It seem to overpower everything The color so beautiful at the store Became dull unfashionable In my life it became a bore Looking at the monstrousity As it smiled so cunningly at me I wanted to throw it out the door I called Salvation Army come get this merchandise Remove it out my door I should have know that it was a White Elephant The minute I eyed it at the store!!!
