brisk gentleman
be speckled pause
grave bedazzlement
at the strange request
from a newly arrived
elderly customer
Viagra?
the bald looking butler
from another era gone by inquires
sheepishly
The frazzled Shop Keeper
standing mid ladder
with dry goods piled high in hand
ponders distantly
"No Sir" he then says
with a newly placed helpful smile
I think its called KIA
the dealership
and its about five blocks down
off the right of Main Street
at that said
the bemused looking little butler of a man
scurried out the door
like a rat in search of a new mouse trap
to raid
laughing to myself at such theatrical scene
I pay for my own purchases and guffaw
aloud as go out to the parking lot
to climb into my own um Viagra..........
