O Why Am I Waiting So Long? (July 30th,2020)

Waiting for my car to get fixed is like Waiting for paint to dry: that is no lie! O I have taken it in many times And new problems emerge: what a surprise! Please God let those cretins sort it out soon, Or tonight I'll be howling at the moon! If I were mechanically minded, I'd fix it myself. I'm being robbed blind! I guess they know that I haven't a clue About cars. Well yes, that is sadly true. Perhaps, when one of those ignorant chaps Requires extra help with English and Maths, I'll get my revenge. I'll charge them double The rate by the hour. They'll be in trouble When I keep them at such a low level; They won't pass their exams. If they quibble About it, I'll just remind them smugly About my car and, ever so slowly, Take back every single hard earned penny Of my ' stolen' money...and suddenly Things, for them at least, won't seem so funny. Rough justice perhaps. Yet it speaks to me! Because waiting for so long makes me mad, And there is nothing worse than being had!
