For Sale Poem by patch work

For Sale



My Grandma's Catholic, as devout as one can be,
and told me St. Joseph can sell my house for me.
It's 120 years old and falling to the ground,
and sits 50 feet from train tracks in the heart of town.
It has some potential, but it would cost a fortune
to replace the floors and walls and the windows that are broken.
I've placed ads and taken many calls,
but no one seems interested and I'm not asking much at all.
So she suggested I plant a statue of St. Joseph upside down,
I thought she was joking...I said 'In the ground'?
She said 'YES' this has worked for many,
I figure what the HELL, since my prospects aren't any.
I wonder what the neighbors will think when they see me planting St. Joseph......
I'll give it 3 months then a realtor will be chosen :)
