Retail Love

Let me calculate the ways I love you:

1. your eyes are shiny white
like Ultrabright 94 Multi-Purpose paper

2. the sexy way you bite your lower lip
as you label products with your Monarch price gun

3. your perky, always sunny disposition
even when customers are super rude.

4. We stick together like extra sticky Post-it Notes
on associate shopping day,
I love how you highlight all my good points –
white out all my bad.

5. My love for you is greater
than for the soft eraser nubs
of a freshly opened
pack of HB pencils.

6. I long to feel you on top of me
and I want you to sharpen my pencil, baby.
