Welcome to the estate sale!
Come on in and look around
See anything you like?
Oh yes, it's all yours, isn't it?
Or rather, it was.
Now it's fodder
For the Saturday morning junk hunters.
Table and chairs--$100
Floor lamp--$25
Potted plant--$2.50
Like you, it's not alive.
The sofa with its arm covers
Barely even used
The cut glass chandelier
Still casts a harsh glare
Also like you
But it's never felt so warm here
Now that you're cold.
And look! Here's your photo!
In a lovely gilded frame
Million dollar smile?
Yours, $1.99.
