Locked In a Closet

Locked in a Closet

John Arwood and Amber Campbell
Had taken quite a gamble
And found themselves trapped by a closet door
Not hearing anyone
They dialed 911
They needed help and that’s what they asked for

For 2 days they’d been trapped
Although they rapped and rapped
They said the door just wouldn’t budge a bit
When the cops arrived
They were sure surprised
The facts and John and Amber didn’t fit

The scene, it wasn’t pretty
In fact the floor was shitty
Drugs and feces covered up the floor
And adding to the shock
The door, it wouldn’t lock
They could have left if they had pushed the door

The pair is not at large
Trespassing has been charged
Some may laugh about it, if they like
But drugs will cloud your mind
And locked closets you will find
Please heed this warning from your Uncle Mike

Andrea Dietrich Date: 1/3/2015 8:42:00 PM hahaha. what a loony pair. I take it that this is based on something in the news. this makes for fun poetry. like the time i wrote about the guy who adopted a ferret that had been injected with steroids and he was told it was a toy poodle. That was hilarious . I think it was a ferret. you gotta google it!! Login to Reply Mike Dailey Date: 1/4/2015 3:44:00 PM OK - you hooked me. What is the name of your ferret poem and is it posted here on poetry soup? As always the poem was based on a real story and Uncle Mike needed to make a point with all of his readers (meaning all of you of course).

Malik Johnson Date: 1/3/2015 9:56:00 AM Funny poem based on that couple in the news. They were trapped but to high to try pushing the door.

Thanks for reading it and giving me your comments. Mike
