Please Officer

The egg came and grabbed me, out of bed.
Shook me awake, smacked my sweet head.
Demanded to know what I had seen.
I plead the fifth, afraid of his mean.

I acted innocent, but it did not convince.
He batted me a bunch, made me wince.
So I am here officer, to simply plead and beg.
I need some back up, to get rid of this egg.

The seasoned officer sat back in his chair,
Lit a cigar, acted like he did not even care.
Aren’t you the same one? He finally asked.
Who wanted us to arrest a balloon in the past?

Thank you Bernard. I was looking at 4 renegade balloons today while I was devouring some naughty eggs.
