The Transaction

The Transaction

A Poem by Cobblestone Traveler
"

"
So much energy pouring out--is it really necessary?
I can see you're eager. Are you still talking?
Sure, come take a ride, come have a good time
And I'll direct you towards the exit gates afterwards

No need to frown, I won't turn you away
I suppose love is a form of currency
Just place it in the slot, Miss Holland, is it?
And I'll feign concern till the meter runs out

For you see, I could take you or leave you
You barely cause a ripple in the pond
Hope you enjoyed yourself, Miss Harris
Now please step off--it's time for lunch

Thank you very much! I'm happy you found it interesting.
Dwelling on various styles of word play is what a reader likes the most. The language is lucid and peculiar. The theme is adorable. Lovely. Keep writing.
