amberjobryant Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 favorite time of year freezing lines but full of cheer bargins to be found
nijireiki Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 (edited) In line for pricematchBought my stuff a week ago--Ha! Who's laughing now?! Slept all day Thursday,Yawning in the minivanthe kids are here to block O Blackest of Days!Your cups overflow with sales onMoste generous gifts Night vision goggles,maps of the building, butit's no spy movie... Wearing my old padsfrom football's not cheating, it'sevening the odds. Economy's bad,Reselling the deals I get,Cash to pay the bills. Alternatively... Economy's bad,Gifts ahead of time '07,No BF this year. Third variant... Economy's bad,Getting the best deals 'cause we'rePinching our pennies! Keep the car running, we've got a lot of places to hit before 6. Circling the lines,"Limit one per customer";There are six of us... Bobsledding with cartsPlowing our way through the crowds,No rainchecks today Gold, frankincense, myrrh--Wouldn't you prefer a Wii?(I've got it like that.) Practicing tacklesand agility training--an Olympic Sport. This year I'm gettinga Blu Ray even ifI have to kill you. Deck the halls with adsand coupons! Fa la la la, Black Friday is here! Stocking up for threeteenagers, DS Lites areon my shopping list I'm a Mac and I'ma PC this year! Savingsfrom Best Buy camping. Iron Man, Batman,could there be more toys?! (They'refor dad, not li'l boys) .....argh. This last one was particularly awkward. I hate using "li'l" as a legitimate word, but there you have it. I wanted to express the plight of girls and women everywhere with the one grown man everyone has in their family who wants all the little boy's toys. My family deals with my father with a kind of judgemental ironic weariness, because we have no brothers/sons for him to pretend he's buying action figures for, and thus this poem with a really nifty improvised rhyme scheme! I am proud of it despite its weaknesses. I also think that snegrif's haiku deserves a nod of appreciation, and I have responded with my own haiku: You may be there first,but my kung-fu is better!Accept challenge? Y/N The syllable count is dependent on choosing one of the options, and not reading both out loud. Curse my shaky interpretation of east-Asian poetry forms!!
