Tag Sales Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Why should I promise you my love?
When you are never available on the weekends.
And those tag sales you say you offer,
On a monthly basis...
Look more like a fast food service to me!
With a slow cook,
Preparing whatever is being offered inside.

No...
I am not buying it!
You say you have revival meetings,
On Saturdays?
What on Earth is being revived?
I see too many guys standing in line outside.
And not a one looking a bit religious.

Of course I am suspicious!
Why wouldn't I be?
