We dickered and haggled the vendor and me
The price I wanted to pay he could not see
Fifty US dollars is my final offer, I said.
I’ll keep it he replied; probably until he is dead.
haggling a huckster’s horse trade
ignoring imaginary ideas of Iodine’s
joyful jubilant jabbering jabberwocky
kibitzing kickapoo kindnesses toward Kelly
lambasting Lilliputin leprechauns leaving Larry
Saturday
finds me on a pew
of wishes, haggling among
mystic stars for an intercession.
As twilight dimmed, I rambled,
“Will my love return?”
The beams winked.

Baggy elbow
Whisking a wow
Flapping & flopping
Constrained by conforming
With ambition
Baggy elbow
Blowing a bow
Swinging & swagging
Hung from haggling
With normalcy
Baggy elbow
Trying a toe
Cracking & creaking
Tired from trusting
Itself
Went with the wife to the pawn shop
To earn a little cash
I was in quite a hurry
Made my poor wife dash
I did a bit of haggling
But no luck, I made a groan
When they only offered me
Ten pounds for the wife
So I had to take her home.
Buying a Goat
How I negotiated for its slaughter
Was not a matter for plain laughter
Haggling, it chanced a sire activity,
Last before the fatalistic disability!
He is charging more than whole,
Maybe he is selling me the sire role!

A detour, from off her time's
Shop-haggling usage.
Aligns with, through abuses
Working for a wage.
Snaps one back again, into
The old pleasantries.
Child's childish; with these about;
Hoppers; winged for bird!
And for rooks, as rantors heard!
Fun, fun parodies.
Battle of the Sexes??
Amorphous metrosexuals haggling over who’s going to hold the bags.
Sight seeing
Never ask directions of a man standing naked in a kayak
Hick up
Whiskey never asks permission of the permissive.
So sew
Thirty-three thimbles teetered on the table top.
Knothead
He drove the nail from one side of town to the other.
