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

- Note: I generally use the photos as illustrations and try not to have my writing to depend on the picture. I believe this one is okay though the photo may tell where I was coming from, but not be a description.
You can tell me.
I'll take one, though not sure my neighbors will envy me!
ReplyDeleteI agree no returns on these. I like your fun and unique take on the prompt Jim. I think you would be a good salesmen!!
ReplyDeleteThe eyes definitely have it, Jim. Nice one.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if it will a good seller... they are a tad scary to have on your wall.
ReplyDeleteYour neighbors will be saying "there goes the neighborhood" !!
ReplyDeleteI like the humour in your poem, Jim. I hope I can come up with something. It looks like a wall of sadness.
ReplyDeleteShouldn't have read this right after blueberries for breakfast. :)
ReplyDeleteThe eyes have it. (I have it!!)
ReplyDeleteWitticism, a rare commodity Dr Jim but you managed it very well!
ReplyDeleteHank
Great take on the prompt. Firesale.
ReplyDeleteI think those eyes would haunt me but, I guess anything is for sale today.
ReplyDeletegruesome! But an apt metaphor for what really happens to some women.
ReplyDeleteClever and unique take on the prompt, Jim!
ReplyDeleteVery nice, Jim!
