Walmart...It's an emotional time |

If ya'll are missin' your college kids
|
1 |
or you just ran out of laundry soap-
|
2 |
or you're tired and lazy
|
3 |
and find yourself moping,
|
4 |
you might like to go to Walmart-
|
5 |
maybe buy a fish for a pet.
|
6 |
(They have a 7 day guarantee you know).
|
7 |
|
|
If you go to Walmart,
|
8 |
you might even have a good cry
|
9 |
in the Bed and Bath section
|
10 |
if your husband's been a prick.
|
11 |
Maybe they've rolled back the price of
|
12 |
flannel sheet sets so when you
|
13 |
make him sleep on the couch tonight
|
14 |
you won't feel so bad.
|
15 |
|
|
If you're PMSing and all cranky and bloated
|
16 |
maybe a trip to the cosmetic department would be a good idea.
|
17 |
Slimming creams, zit concealers and such.
|
18 |
The helpful Walmart staff are very familiar
|
19 |
with the newest line of fragrances too.
|
20 |
But please don't buy Exclamation!!!
|
21 |
(it's for your own good).
|
22 |
|
|
See, I always like to eat at the WalMart McDonald's
|
23 |
cuz it's smaller and has less food choices,
|
24 |
and if I'm feeling fat that day
|
25 |
I don't feel as fat.
|
26 |
I hear that certain locations even have the "lean selections" menu.
|
27 |
Sorry, still no milkshakes...
|
28 |
|
|
If you have really bad kids like mine that hide in
|
29 |
clothing racks, or can't find them cuz the lil' bastards have ran off,
|
30 |
no worries, they have Code ADAM.
|
31 |
It's Walmart-style lockdown.
|
32 |
|
|
Or, if you're a guy, and hate shopping, well...
|
33 |
You can always watch tear-jerking Disney movies on HD tv,
|
34 |
besides, I think you could get a video game
|
35 |
for a good deal.
|
36 |
Then you wouldn't be so bored at home if your wife
|
37 |
wants you to watch stupid shows like
|
38 |
America's Next Top Model.
|
39 |
(Hey, I think they sell the whole season there)!
|

|
Ahh Walmart... it's an emotional time.

funny and insightful, I love the sarcasm in this writing and me being a loyal Wal Mart shopper, I can totally relate. I just wish you would have personalized it a bit more rather than narrative.

wal-mart is one of my favorite places on earth. everything you've said here is true and easy to relate to, and I loved your touching immortal tribute to a place as awesome as wal-mart.

The piece is funny, the sarcasm works - but it is prose put in the form of a poem. Sorry
