They Want You To Suffer Poem by Randy McClave

The lawyer hopes that you get into trouble
And he hopes your life turns into bills and debt and rubble,
He hopes that your life is devastating and grim
And he hopes daily that you need him.

The doctor hopes that you get very sick
And they hope that it happens really quick,
They also hope that you get desperately ill
So, higher is their bill.

The police hopes that you become a criminal
And they hope that your crime is not minimal,
They hope that your crimes have succeeded
Then they will always be wanted and needed.

The teacher hopes that you're born silly
As the parents and all see poor foolish little Billy,
Then the teacher will be needed to help the child to get A's
And then the teacher will get the praise.

The landlord hopes you don't build a house
He hopes that you have no pets or children or a spouse,
He hoped that before you lived in a tent
And he wants you to always pay him his rent.

The prostitute hopes that you don't get a spouse
And if you do she hopes you're lonely in your house,
She hopes that your in a constant argument and fight
So, that you can visit her at night.

The dentist hopes that your teeth decay
That thought they constantly wish and hope and pray,
They hope that your teeth give you constant pain
And causes you to feel as if your going insane.

The mechanic hopes that your car constantly breaks down
Whenever you are in his town,
He hopes that your car needs constant repair
Of your vehicle he hopes your negligent without care.

The coffin maker wants you to die
That's the truth and not a lie,
And he hopes you had a high price life insurance policy
And he hopes cremation is never necessary.

Seemingly everyone wants you to hurt and suffer
They continuously want your life to be costly and tougher,
They won't you to go through constant stress and strife
But, it's only a thief who wishes you prosperity in your life.
