one wedding dress for sale

she left behind one of her
wedding dresses.
there it hung collecting
dust and cobwebs
in my closet so i tried
to sell it on e-bay.
i posted pictures
and described how white
it was,
how it flowed, the layers,
not unlike a beautiful
cake.  a cotton blend, no less
made in Italy
the tag read.
worn once, for an hour
or two, 
no stains, no tears, or rips.
just like new.
and there were shiny
white pumps to go with it.
this caused a bidding war.
i managed to get the price
up to fifty dollars
before it sold
for fifty one.
