Furious George

Furious George, angry adolescent
Whose fury was white-hot incandescent 
   He kept punching a cop
   Foolish kid wouldn't stop ~
The slammer's now curbed his effervescence

Hello Gershon … police have this habit of having the final say and the bars are very different to the ones the culprit is accustomed to - thanks Gershon - Lindsay

Yup. The police usually have things their way, don't they? Thanks, Lindsay.

Great play on 'Curious George' (if that's what it was) yes the slammer can chill that hot temper pretty quick!

Furious George is angry as could be, Locked in a cell with nowhere to pee. He aimed through the bars, Filling a cop’s jars, Cop supped up and said “what a nice tea.”
