Who Did That? Poem by Tony Avila Sampson

I must not laugh, while thinking,
How your tires had air leaking...
From the air someone set going,
I heard the air hiss flowing...
And quickly, they went flat,
Now why would someone do that?
Tell me who did that to you?
Oh, but only if you knew...
You really don't know, do you?
Then this you might just do...
You can fix 'em two by two...
Then keep your car in view...
Get a higher paying job...
Could guard it with a mob...
Or be nice, to say a few,
You might save a buck or two...
Be prepared for it again,
If you only knew just when...
Just might catch 'em at the end,
Be from your wrath, you'll later grin!
