Payed Foolery


I've written a poem

Not once, but thrice 

You've ruled them out

You've ruled them twice 

 

Well, I've written another 

Written strait to heck 

Fair is fair 

Now write me a check 

 

I am no fool

Not for free 

Oh, but for a price

A fool I'll be 

 

My only desire

Is for my due

And while I prefer cash

Pizza will do

 

How about a joke?

I'm paid by the hour

I thought of this one

While taking a shower 

 

"Knock, knock"

Says I

"Who's there?"

You reply 

"Just me"

I say

"Me who?"

No way! 

 

"You're a cat!"

I yell 

And the joke is done 

Do you not laugh?

Is this not fun? 

 

Now the part where I beg

I'm on my knees

I promise, for pizza

Pizza, if you please 

 

For pizza I pray

Please let it be

For the love of God

Just laugh at me!
