You Can’t Write a Poem About Walmart MAG
You can't write a poem about Walmart.
It would have too much stuff
Poems are supposed to be short
And easy to read,
But a poem about Walmart would be way too big,
And crowded,
And cheap.
There would be too many people
In the poem.
All complaining about something,
The employees about their paychecks,
And benefits,
And healthcare,
And hours
The customers about the spills,
And quality,
And over-crowdedness
You can't fit that many people,
And their complaints,
Into a concise,
And easy-to-read poem.
Not to mention the lines
The lines at Walmart are looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnng
And lines in poems are
Short.
So as the ad on page three explains,
Don't write a poem about Walmart.
Because you would fail,
Miserably.
Plus,
There are better stores than Walmart
Try Costco,
Or Jewel.
Garden Fresh Market,
Or Safeway.
But a poem about Walmart,
Nah.
It would end with
Far too many lawsuits.
