Magazine Myths
The colorful
glossy pages
give me tips
and tricks
to look better,
feel better,
smell better,
and eat better.
But by the last
page
I feel ugly,
sick,
stinky,
and fat.
$2.98 well spent?

Car Bye, Car Buy
my car's a joke
it finally broke
now we shop
Craigslist nonstop
buy used or new?
pick orange or blue?
automatic or stick?
so hard to pick
take a test drive
hope I survive
accelerate fast
policeman passed
zip around town
must slow down
kick the tire
what's that wire?
needs work but nice
we negotiate a price
the deal is done
now driving's fun
