Ebay action (see what I did there?)

[bennie]

The earth distilled itself in a beaker in the corner, lifeless now while this bidder sits in his swivel chair like a giant EBay tear.

All the vultures sing and bid together – a velvet mass for hours. In the rear view mirror, psycho wolverines strike with arms of cinder block guilt.

Your current bid is a haircut situation of secretly secreted spices and lame looking grandfather clocks with lubricated pendulum scraping dirt. (The clock still ticks, one of the door hinges is rusty, a postcard is super-glued to the sides and it can’t be removed, no reserve, one lady owner.)

A limbo induction to this catharsis would be to imagine worms crawling through asphalt amputations in dirt. One single transmission is hovering – seconds remaining – a finger click exchange – energetic glands – invincible sensation – a maximum bid entered – a dance between corpses and binary code. Why these folding arms attempt a confession, I’ll never know.

Lazarus got pipped to the post.

Love that last paragraph.....I could feel the tension building, I could see your itching trigger finger poised to bid high or die in the try. Or some such thing.

What I want to know is

Were you highest bidder?

And what the fuck did you buy?

I believe men might be addicted to ebaby. Just a theory of mine.

I'm not addicted to Ebay but I do enjoy it. It's sort of like gambling. If you lose you don't really lose and if you win you don't really win, you just buy. but it's sort of winning and loosing in a sanatised fashion. sort of.

I bought a biker jacket a few weeks ago and this was me thinking back to the excitement of the 5 min 4 min 3 min...remaining moment where you have to outbid that other fucker who keeps outbidding you.

haha, I beat him and the jacket is great.
