'Crime Minister' Someday

     Young Todd pinched his bankers’ certificate
     Forged two more, so he had a triplicate

         Now Todd would fulfill his dream
         ‘Good old boys’ downplayed his scheme  

     ~ On the fast track to run the syndicate

Perhaps Todd's good friend is Ponsi? I hear he's a good old boy, too :-)

See your pen is still busy, witty and entertaining. Enjoyed. I sent a Soupy. Is your entire world entirely ok? I feel something may be amiss because I miss seeing you around. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
