Early Monday morning
I discovered, to my dis-tress,
that, sometime during the
previous evening, somebody
had stolen my car.
ii.
I immediately called the police
& filed a report.
The police-man they sent to my
apartment told me that
they would do their best,
but not to hold out too much hope.
iii.
On the following Monday,
the same police-man called me,
and in a hopeful voice, said that
they had located my vehicle,
but, he warned, it had been
stripped of everything.
iv.
“OK,” I said. “I’ll come by and pick it up —- ”
But the policeman interrupted me & said,
“We’ll just mail it to you.”
v.
A week later,
I rec’d an envelope in the mail from the police.
vi.
Inside the envelope was
my windshield wiper blade.
vii
Under-neath the blade
was a ticket.
I imagine the WWE organisation has a guy whose only job is to order more foldable tables.
