Down at the Mall
they are having a sale.
Antidotes for insecurities,
brand new Self-Esteems to go
with frills and thrills,
batteries not included.
Pieces of your humanity,
My humanity.
All shrink-wrapped and sold
in pretty, Made-in-China packages
available by the dozens.
Or was it, buy one get one free?
I don’t remember to be exact.
But all sales are final
No refunds please.
