"Pretty Things", or "Sales"
Theodore, I Thought You Needed Some Pretty Things
That You Can Play With Wear Out And Mess Up.
Seeking after pretty little things takes a bit of money
and a wise eye.  The things that make you giggle and strut
are the things i really seek to give you.  Pretty Things
Pretty Things That You Can Be Proud To Own, your very Own Things.
Sex sells.  Food Sells.  Beauty Sells.  Description Sells.  But Love?
Love Doesn't sell, somehow.  You can write the most loving poems
 the world can ever know, and not sell a single copy.  Fame isn't about love.
Being the best isn't about Goodness or Virtue.  Its about food and money and sex.
It's about sales. So when I Buy you pretty things at the store, its on borrowed money
My Love For You Isn't selling, i guess, you cannot sell Love!
Nobody wants to read of my love.  Nobody has time for ethics or God.
Money shouldn't come into the equiation.  I wish I could give my books away
for free!
In Jesus' Name,
Amen!/////
