$3.50 Black Friday Paper

Bought the paper on Thanksgiving
Read it on Black Friday
The story of the homeless out in California, Seattle, and New York City
How 3,500 dollar rent is forcing working people to be homeless in Seattle
How the pay of jobs is not even close to keeping up with the cost of living
Then I read all the stuff that was for sale
Lots of drones
Big ones and little ones
Big teddy bears
One that was 52 inches tall!
Video game systems
Xbox One and Playstation 4
Lots of cheap DVDs
Guns and clothes and copper pans
Christmas sweaters, perfume, and diamond rings
I spent 6 dollars and change at Burger King
Got onion rings, jr. whopper, and a Mello Yello
I got buy real cheap
And I didn't have to fight any crowds!

About this poem:
I have never bought anything on Black Friday. I just buy a newspaper to see why over 45 million people go nuts over this stuff.
