Hang Me Out to Dry

Today I went shopping at Target
I needed some shirts among other things
I reminded myself not to forget
that I needed some hangers for hanging

I asked the clerk if I could please keep them
As he scanned a shirt I wanted to buy
Alas! He did soon my question condemn
The hangers would still the store's, not mine.

"But I've run out of hangers!" I pleaded
"I hung my clothes up and they are all gone"
I had hoped he would see they were needed
and he conceded to give me just one...

Now I shop for hangers disenchanted
missing free ones I'd taken for granted...
