the quick mart

i have no idea what eggs
cost,
or a gallon of milk,
or sugar
and salt.
wine?
marked down?
day old?
who cares?
i just put it into the cart
and push onward.
not a coupon in hand.
no list.
no newspaper ad
perused.
in goes the meat, the bread,
the lettuce.
beans in a can,
then out the store
we go.
