The
Flashlight © Tony Fallon 081217
I own a
hardware store and it’s not the best of times
I sell locks
hinges and buzzers bells and chimes
A man asked
for a flashlight I asked him what kind
He said if I
showed him everything he certainly wouldn’t mind
I first
showed the aluminum model used by the police
He said that
was far too heavy would I have a lighter piece
The next one
I showed him was plastic that was too fat
I began to
think this man was Loony and talking thru his hat
I showed him
the one battery model he said he wanted two
I was beginning
to believe this man didn’t have a clue
He didn’t
like the regular bulb now he said that instead
He’d like to
have the newest kind the one they call led.
So I showed
him the one he wanted which was very bright
He said it
was too expensive so I bade him good night.
