Limit Two per Customer

A Poem

Limit Two per Customer

Everyone thinks you’re some kind of hustler

They think you want the entire smorgasbord

But they don’t realize

You’re not an easy customer

They think you’ll buy anything dropped in front of you

But that’s not what you want

You’re fine with the limit of two per customer

Because you’ve realized

Anymore is too much to carry

Anymore

And life gets a little hairy

    It’s cool is you have a big family, they can help you carry them 🙂

  • When you open the last one, write it on the list. It's not just that it's too much to carry. We don't have room to store it anymore.
