Shopping for Coconut

Shopping for the family Thanksgiving dinner at the local Shop-Rite I went.
Searching for the grated coconut I was.
Along came a lady.
She Acted Kind of Shady.
And all I could do was shake my head.

See, I told you I couldn't write poetry!

True story, I was perusing down the isle looking for coconut when this nice old lady starts talking to herself.  She was blabbering something about, Oh, the Humanity, It's tough in here.  I looked at her and said, "You know, you're right.  There's a lot of people shoving and pushing on this day before, don't feel bad, it's not only you."
She then said "It's all this socialist stuff...we're all turning socialist, you know what I mean?
I said "NO???"

A really sad and silly personal account at the local supermarket.  What has the media and right-wing conservatives done to this grand ole' country of ours?
