going out of business

i see that the sex store

up the street

next to the Baptist 

Church and Motel 6

(shared parking)

is closing.  the mannequins

in the window are naked.

like most of us

they looked better

with their clothes on.

after all these years

it's finally

shutting its doors.

from what i heard,

(hearsay)

it was two stories tall.

with shopping carts,

an elevator,

it had an escalator.

a back door and was

wheel chair accessible.

it had everything.

from movies to toys,

batteries not included,

to cages

and blow up dolls.

membership cards.

a greeter at the door.

the sign says going out

of business.

massage oils marked

down,

everything half price,

or less,

everything must go.

no refunds, no returns,

especially on lingerie

and faux leather

boots, boas are free,

a limit of three per

person.
