My Purpose

My purpose was to prove them wrong To prove my friend did not make those calls. That was not like him to do those things That made another fear his name. She was not the only one At least a dozen he did call. How could he have me been so bold To use the phone for his sexual calls. I set and wonder how he would feel If someone would do the same to him. To hide the fact of what he did He said she did it unto him. She did not know the man Who 78 times called her phone. But I know who made those calls I sat and watched him at payphones. A business man, a jeweler in our town Was the one who made those offensive calls.
