Here is something you don’t see every day- an ode (well, not really an ode) to WalMart.
Because curiosity got the better of me while I was writing this and because google rules, here is an actual Ode to Walmart:
Ode to Wal Mart
isles and isles
of bargins piled
high–
as eye can
see
triumphant consumers
generals and colonels
march down battlements
armies
clutch toy cars
plastic princess barrettes
ride to battle in plastic baby seats
babies learn to seek
cheapest deals
before they can talk
It goes on. The internets is great.

I like poetry. Though I’m sure I’m missing something with the word “isles” – which is short for islands.
I wonder if they meant “aisles?” I might just be missing the symbolism though. You know how those poetry people are!
Or, I might just be too much of a stickler for grammar and spelling.

It is called “the Walmarts” by my Aunt. I don’t know why it is referred to this way, I shop at Target.

Michael beat me to it. I was going to say “islands and islands?”
