Something won,
Of course spending $50 to “win”
But who’s the real winner of this stuffed toy?
The so called “winner”? Or the carnival?
Sure, you got a stuffed animal, go you.
But the carnival has claimed yet another victim,
All that money gone.
All because of pride, she says “oh how cute”
Now go out and win that toy.
It’s a matter of manhood right?
Wrong.

Guys should really just listen.
And get this message:

Save that wallet the trouble and
Buy …
Chocolate,
Or…
Flowers,
She will still love it
And now
Go out to dinner and a movie
Same affect, trust the expert.

My boyfriend gave me a stuffed whale and I wrote this poem in my creative writing class about it.
