A Poem for Sunday Muse #98


The House of Eyes 

Come one come all clearance sale today 
Take one take two take more home today 
Brave souls gave their best, children eating 

Hang them on your walls impress your friends 
Marbleized animal or human 
Come with faces, pretty or toss them  

Products  not suitable for eating 
Dry frozen ready for implanting
Some countries prohibit importing 

As is, absolutely no returns 
Be the first to have them on your block 
Envy of your neighbors-buy some now

You can tell me.

I'll take one, though not sure my neighbors will envy me!

I agree no returns on these. I like your fun and unique take on the prompt Jim. I think you would be a good salesmen!!

I wonder if it will a good seller... they are a tad scary to have on your wall.

I like the humour in your poem, Jim. I hope I can come up with something. It looks like a wall of sadness.

Witticism, a rare commodity Dr Jim but you managed it very well!

I think those eyes would haunt me but, I guess anything is for sale today.

gruesome! But an apt metaphor for what really happens to some women.
