The First Time I Went Online Shopping (Expanded)
Click, a world of goods at my finger,
Cart full, budget’s linger.
Package arrives, joy unboxed,
Till credit’s shock, paradox rocked.
The thrill of adding things to cart
Without walking a single aisle.
The dopamine hit of “Order Confirmed.”
Then the slow-motion horror
Of watching the total climb
Past what any reasonable person
Would spend on throw pillows.
