I can shop for antiques online

In Surrey, England. Live, a Victorian

Racehorse lifestyle; or browsing find

A brooch set with rose cut diamonds 

With enamel jockey and safety chain. 

A quick view first, as with a micro view. 

2450 British pounds? Oh yes, 

Add to Cart. Quantity: 1. Only, 

There better be. Keep searching. 

1950s aquamarine diamond ring.

View more details? Absolutely. 

3,750 pounds. Steal – set in 18 carat

Gold; an original bakelite box. 

Approx. 18 carat pink gold mount

And diamonds on the shoulder.

 I’m giving this one to my dream 

Girlfriend: everything I do is #love.

Visa, Mastercard, Paypal? The transaction

Is final sale and has gone through. 

Extra charge? I don’t care. My budget 

Is infinite. Will the brooch and ring

Arrive in the mail? Yes, virtually. 

Would you like them in pdf, docx?

I would like an NFT, please. 

I want that seal of approval 

Around my ring finger. 

 

Jasper Glen is a poet from Vancouver, Canada. He holds a BA in Philosophy and a JD. His poems have recently appeared or are forthcoming in Streetlight Magazine, fauxmoir, Pinky Thinker Press, The Ekphrastic Review, The Antonym, and Island Writer Magazine.

Aaron Bo Heimlich is an Illustrator and Cartoonist living in San Francisco, CA. He has been delighted by illustrating the imaginary and satirical from a young age, with his modern work remaining much the same. He hopes his preference for wry humor moves others to discuss and discern the meanings of his creations. He considers live conversation an aspect of his art; representative of folklore survived by oral exchange.
