Buy Nothing

Found poem created from posts in the Buy Nothing Mesa/Vista Facebook group.

I am reaching out for help.

I’m moving soon and I don’t have the space.

I’m purging craft supplies.

We used to use them for experimenting

with light

when we were younger.

We just don’t need them any longer.

Ask: Is anyone a good artist who could help me?

You never know when somebody needs a jar of blue paint.

Blue pipe cleaners. Blue felt.

Art paints and brushes we don't want anymore.

A variety pack, well-loved.

I hope you can tell how much love I have.

Give: Random odds and ends!

We're not using these. Could you?

Slow cure resin

Gently used baby things

Wooden puzzle with whimsy pieces

Zoo books. Great for kids

Instant Pickler.

A collector spoon from Prague?

Dog boots, size small

This big bag of bras

Books and more books

Oh, and some skeleton gloves

Still available:

A cheap, sorta wobbly, little lightweight bookshelf.

Could be repaired with a skilled tinkerer!

If you have a hot glue gun, it'll be good as new!

It’s a deep rust color.

Wrinkled but clean.

Crinkled but unused.

Bumps and bruises,

but lots of life left.

Amazon told me no need to return.

Time to see if someone else will.

If you take it, you have to promise to be the best.

Take one or all. Last call.

Idk. But please take them.
