oh hush!

What is postage anyway?
I frequent the post
office
occasionaly
only to be
ordinarily
offered
other
opportunities to
overspend
on
ostentatious
or
otherwise
outrageous and
over the top extras like confirmation and insurance,
what is postage in the first place?
the hopeful possibility that your parcel will arrive?
I just can't wait until it costs a dollar to send a postcard
