Identity Theft

He applied
For the
Job

The job had
Been filled

It was posted
Ten minutes ago

It had to be
An internal
Deal

She was approved for a car
The dealer said
"This may break your heart
But the car has been
Sold"

She walked down the street
And who did she meet?

The man who's 
Job had been
Filled

They talked as they walked

Then it was revealed

They thought
That misfortune
Was an identity thief

Who only likes
To steal
