Charles Messina Poet Rhyme

Check the Records

Excuse me, Mrs. "NASTY"- DMV lady 
Whatever be your name 
I see those tickets are addressed to me 
But I assure you, I'm not to blame 
You see, I've been away for twenty years 
In Jail: Behind the bars 
So, there's no way that I could have gotten them 
For I haven't driven any cars 
I think there must be some mistake 
Check the records and you will see 
That someone else had possibly drove that car 
But I know that it wasn't me 
Now if you will. please give me my license 
Before, I pass some gas 
And take those tickets that you thought were mine 
And you can shove them up your   ....

Greg Gaul February 15, 2022 at 10:28 AM Charlie, what was that last word you were looking for in your poem where you used the elipse? I'm an old sailor, so forgive me but it must've been "mast" you were searching for. Right? Loved your humor in your poem. Very funny.

Alexis Y. February 15, 2022 at 8:02 AM Lol! Charlie, This was hilarious! Congratulations on a well-deserved win. Have a nice day-Alexis

Connie Marcum Wong February 14, 2022 at 11:16 AM Not fun dealing with the DMV. Because of Covid they took all of the benches away no chairs anywhere and a long line to stand in, a little bit of torture before paying a large registration fee which piled on more pain. I love your alibi! Congratulations on your wonderful win. Happy Valentine’s Day my friend. Blessings xxoo

Janice Canerdy February 14, 2022 at 10:03 AM "I was in jail"--the best alibi ever! LOL! CONGRATS on your win, Charles. Janice
