How Did He Know

He was right.
It was me, he was describing
watching TV bills piled up
living paycheck to paycheck.

How did he know?
I wasn't lazy
just needed guidance motivation,
someone to show me.
How to make a million
without leaving my house.

How did he know?
I was ready
to have operators standing by,
four easy payments
all major credit cards accepted
thirty days to examine in my home.
If not completely satisfied,
money back minus shipping & handing
would be the last straw
to break this camel's back !

How did he know?
My wife would be asleep
and couldn't stop me this time.
How did he know?
