Paula Goldsmith Poet Prose

New Law: Mouth Police Are Giving Out Tickets

As of today you need to watch your mouth and what you say.  
We have always been able to hurt someone's feelings by our words.   
Tell them off or bring them down. 
Now do it and you will be fined. 
First time $500.00.  
Each time after $1,000 each.
