i say no

i say no

every store
asks me
if i have their
discount or
club or rewards
card -at the check out

i say no

they say-

would you like one?

i say no

they look insulted,
or as if i told them
they have a piece
of spinach on thier
tooth

i know i could save 5%

- but my wallet would
get as big as a brick...

again -

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
