Notes About The Poem
Based around my irritation with an incident involving a loss of money from someone on the Internet, but this relates to anyone who can share the same idea.

I Got Ripped Off

To those who scam one another
One day you will be smothered
You cannot do it for too long
And you know that it is wrong
Any delusion you may have had
Becomes much more than so sad
All you hope will not be true
It ends up that ending to you
