Day 149

Today's words:

Price
Vowel
Dish
Hobby
Entrance
Crash

She was watching Wheel of Fortune, as usual. The price
For a vowel
Was ridiculous. But why dish
About her hobby?
I'll make a grand entrance
Elsewhere, or I'll crash.

After the crash
The price
Of real estate went down for a while.  Still, an entrance
Into this market was tough. "I'd like to buy a vowel,"
Won't cut it, and it's a very expensive hobby.
Have you tried the new dish

At Nobu? It's a dish
That would never have existed before the crash.
It costs a fortune, but that's the hobby
Of the 1%; paying a price
For trifles that wouldn't be worth a vowel
In most places. But in order to properly make an entrance

You need to pay. The entrance
Fee alone is more than you can imagine, and the cost of a dish
Is just plain nuts. So she got her vowel,
Before the crash,
And guessed the phrase. Now it's time for The Price
Is Right. Game shows - that's her hobby.

I guess it's better than shopping at Hobby Lobby.
I'll never make an entrance
There, regardless of the price
Of their crap.  I'll take their dish
And crash
It to the ground, while screaming a vowel.

And what's the use of a vowel
If you don't have a hobby?
You can crash
Your car into the entrance,
Or bring a covered dish
To supper. A gift at any price.

So I painted over the vowel at the entrance,
So Hobby became Hubby. He's a dish
Who'll crash regardless of the price.
