I Sold my Soul on E-Bay

by Stinky - Aries

I was broke
I needed cash
Too damn lazy to work
I had nothing to sell
Or so I thought
I got to thinking
And remembered the story
Of the baby being sold
On E-Bay
I came to the conclusion
That the only thing of value I had
Was my soul
I sat with a calculator and figured
With all the dismay in my life
My soul was worth around $1.27
I ran to my computer
And quickly typed
www.ebay.com into my browser
And quickly set my soul for sale
I left my computer and went to bed
I got up to find
That the bids for my soul
Had risen five hundred-fold the starting price
The auction quickly ended
And someone by the name
Of DeViL666 had offered $666.66 for it
I quickly typed up an e-mail to him
And found his e-mail address
Could not be found
I screamed
And awoke from the dream
Just in time to see the auction close
With no bidders
I had forgotten
I already gave my soul
For a quarter in the lunch line...

Reason for writing:

    Came up with the title and went from there. Was meant to be a funny poem but turned out to be more of a story instead. Owell.
