side,
washing his car only when it
rained,
buying a christmas
tree
the day after christmas.
used cars,
used clothes.
a second hand mattress.
even his wife
was passed down,
third time's the charm.
charging his
new step children room
and board.
he stuck with generic
ketchup
or mustard.
the day old bread, the meat
about to expire
was just fine.
he saved it all for his
rainy day.
and now that day
has arrived. alone
in his house,
with no one stopping by.
