Lol! . That joke never gets old! At least in jail you dont get junk mail. Fantastic work Kim! A true original!
You mean you have heard something similar before? I HAD NOT. I have a friend named Jack that I see every week, and I actually thought this up all by myself. Thanks for commenting.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Very original and top quality work! To my favorites and five stars!
What a wonderful poem, Kim! Amazingly humorous and very entertaining. So well crafted. To my favorites. Congratulations for having won First Place in the Arizona State Poetry Society annual contest.
At last! - and jail you would go, but at least yr aunt could visit you....
I don't really have an aunt in Maine. All of my aunts and uncles are long gone. I am the OLD generation now. I have seven great-grandchildren.

Thanks, Susan. I actually have a neighbor named Jack, and one day I told him I had written a poem about him. He didn't believe me, so I showed him the book!
