Question: Can you afford to read my acrostic poem!?
Muddied and crinkled
Offering for beggars
Navigated sewers
Emptied out of pockets
Yet we all stop to pick it upWww@QuestionHome@Com

i couldn't afford not to!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Never seen crinkled money
Lying around
It's only been coinage
That I have found!.
And then only pennies
Hardly worth bending down
But, hey, I'm not proud
They soon add up to a pound!.

Actually, I always pick up pennies when I see them!.!.!.!.my children think I am nuts!. But, people say 'see a penny, pick it up, and all day you'll have good luck' which is a corruption of an old saying 'see a pin!.!.!.!.!.' but I still pick up the penny! And chant the rhyme!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

See that glisten, shine and glimmer!.
I'll pick it up!. OY! I wish I were slimmer!.
My back is weak, my eyesight's dimmer!.
Oh, how I miss that old vig and vimor!.
Let me stretch abs pectoral
Easy now, here lies the moral
One who eats pastrami and pickle
Never should bend for a goddamn nickel!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Is this another meaning of "dirty money"!? When I saw $5 laying there, in front of me - I thought the doors of heaven had opened - and joy was raining down!. Such happiness - it never crossed my mind - about the possibility of germs!. ?Www@QuestionHome@Com
