Don'T Shroom and Drive

"License and registration please," the officer said to me.
"Is there a problem officer?" I asked politely.
"Are you serious?!" he snapped back angrily,
and so I decided to just sit in my car quietly,
parked in a playground, in its sandbox,
with frightened children surrounding me.
A word of advice to everybody,
Never drive after taking cough syrup, 
and never chase it down with mushroom tea.
