Just For You Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

You have had a good time,
Most of your life.
As you made jokes of others...
And mocked their deprived way of life.

I've heard you discuss,
How lazy they were...
And worthless human beings.
Remember telling me to go back to Africa?
Even though your heritage is European.

You remember calling the cops on me?
When I asked your for directions...
And acted very neighborly.

But something has attacked your cash flow,
With an unexpected blow!
Those standards you valued...
Have come to foreclose all your doors.
Even possessions you 'owned' are being repossessed.
And in unemployment lines you stand for hours...
Just like 'them' and those you regarded as pests.

And now it is your turn.
Let's see how you do!
Knowing someone has intentionally...
Deceived and dumped on you!

If you ever want on few tips,
On how to deal with this.
Here is my business card.
The first hour is free.
After that...
There is an hourly charge!
I'm sure I can come up with 'something'...
Suitable,
Just for you!
