An Arm and a Foot

Since emails became king, the postal service is suffering
Maybe that's why the cost of a stamp causes stuttering
Are you serious, last time I looked
A stamp didn't cost an arm and a foot
Now need a freaking bank loan, to myself I'm muttering

That's why I got no letter!//From Jack, cause email's better//and he's cheap//likes to peep//I'm glad he's not a debtor. STAMP ON JACKSON!!!

If you really want an old fashioned LETTER... send me your address down in Arizona, coz that's how long it takes!!!

Yes, this is so true, I hardly mail anything anymore, though I do order things that come in the mail...so the postal service isn't that bad and suffering! That is because it costs so much to send packages in the mail too! What a brilliant way to present this dilemma! In a funny limerick! What a fabulous piece, Great Work my friend!!
