Life’s Strange Bargains

If love for your spouse you choose to neglect,  
Your neighbor may swoop in with fond respect.  
If workers you treat with little care,  
Your rivals will claim them, sharp and aware.  

A job in your field may keep you afloat,  
Yet greatness is born where no lessons were wrote.

Black Friday

I bought you a gift, Black Friday cheap
I hoped you would like it and want to keep
My credit card quaked and shook in my hand
I spent much more than I had planned

Black Friday gripped me, bargains galore
I saw the glitter, glistening and spent some more
The gold so yellow, Black Friday blond, amber
Will drape with pride

My Shopping List

It has been two years 
I didn't go shopping 
My shopping list left blank
Compare with last time 
I went everyday
Though I bought little
But the cheapest bargains
Just wandering about most of the time
Killing time
And adding pleasure
I saved a lot 
During MCO 
And now I wonder
What should I put on the list
Suddenly I  got the answer
I

The Art Gallery

An indoor showroom for
Invaluable art pieces
To attract your attentions
To the beauty of nature
Or your admirations
To the beauty of creations of men 
Maybe for the eyes only 
But no bargains

Bargains

`

I was having a yard sale
She said, "how much for that?"
as she pointed at my chest
I said, "what, my heart?"
She said, "yes, how much?"
I said, "It's not for sale."
So she stole it

Best yard sale ever!

We Pledge Ever Fairer Matrimonial Bargains

Achievements not mine
Grace to my rescue
To ensure fortitude doesn’t decline
But continues in every circumstance to give Christine and I the clue

To promote humility first and foremost
If we’re to get far
Performing better, our abilities to shine the most
In our heart, in our mind, in our car

Reflecting upon measures we’d taken
In tiny issues, in temperance issues
Appreciating past

Goodwill Bargains

A springtime ritual at my house is to rid my closet of old clothes.

Including outdated suits, shirts, pants, shoes, all to dispose.

Goodwill appreciates my donations in their stores to display.

It warms my soul to see folks buying stuff who have little to pay.

A week or so later my wife and I were at a local

Late Night Bargains

Some mysteries come slowly together;
Kept secrets erode a weary soul
 as they turn what is beautiful
 into that which is cruel and cold.

In a dream-state I recognize myself in you-
 And am forced to trace my gaze down.
A hybrid species finds the path
 from the damp swamps to our little clearing.

An anomaly in a uniform

Bargains

The bargain was different every time.
My indifference was seen as an enemy.
Thunder struck from the south,
And my mouth worked inward.
(The target of so many things.)

Everything falls like ice.
Let’s burst and disperse
That’s all we ever wanted, anyway.

Forgotten Bargains

Some mysteries come slowly together;
Kept secrets erode a weary soul
 as they turn what is beautiful
 into that which is cruel and cold.

In a dream-state I recognize myself in you-
 And am forced to trace my gaze down.
A hybrid species finds the path
 from the damp swamps to our little clearing.

An anomaly in a uniform
