PawnShop

The extent a man will go.....

PawnShop

 

A man told me he had the keys

To Heaven.

I asked him where he got them.

He said- a pawnshop on Van Nuys Blvd

From An Armenian man with a lot of K’s and J’s

In his name.

I asked him if he had anymore?

He said-no

He had purchased the last set.

So, I beat the man and took his keys

Some people will do anything to enter paradise

Even hurt his brother

Yes we lose our souls
for just a tiny sliver of paradise.

I liked this one very much. Very interesting concept.

interesting. very interesting. I like the pace of this.

yeah I think that's the way the old fable of Able and Cain sort of went. It's too bad seeking treasures never is completely satisfied when obtained at the expense of someone else.

Interesting piece. Not at all what I expected in a good way. though I don't like the way this piece went, it was well written with an interesting visual.

I don't know. Stealing the keys may be a negative for heaven and beating the man. I dislike pawnshops. A business that make money off people who are desperate or thieves. I like the ending to the excellent poem.
