Affordable! Affordable!
Keep your life transportable.

Avoid obsessions with possessions,
Want you psychiatric sessions?

Chasing debt can make you phobic,
It’s like living anaerobic.

If, bleary-eyed, you stare in stores,
Then run, to get thee out of doors.

Henry David Thoreau-Lee
AKA Sal Citarella

  1. This hangs on my wall. Don’t remember when or why I wrote it, but still seems like good advice.
    Reads better in two-line poem format. Thoreau might have been a bit of a whackjob, but he had some insight into living.
