TALE OF THE TIKI

I took a trip to the state,

The aloha state that is.

 

Upon arrival I was drawn to this shack,

Where an old lady stood alone.

 

She pointed me to these tiki statues,

Wooden, traditional tikis.

I knew I wanted one,

But I couldn't decide which.

 

"This one looks cool".

"but this one looks intimidating".

 

I finally came to the conclusion

the one on the left was for me.

 

This wooden traditional tiki.

Without even knowing, 

 

It was the god of money.

This poem is about a very vivid moment of a trip I took earlier this year
