"Don't leave the [thrift] store until you've seen everything."

"Ode to Thrift Stores," a 2-min. spoken-word poem by Ariana Brown, to kick of National Poetry Month.

Thrift stores are about The Magic History of Human Things.
This poem gets it.

"What can you create when the only thing in front of you is your hands?"

  1. From someone who has come to spend her money at thrift stores on things she needs, I truly appreciate what she speaks.

    I would agree that shoes and underwear are the two things I don't buy at thrift stores either!

    Her voice is meant for speaking.

  2. KIRSTEN: I did buy a pair of almost-new Merrill boots at the store this winter... $10 compared to $90, I took the chance.
