Robo-Calls
The Do Not Call list doesn’t work
For scammers still get through.
I answer, feeling like a jerk,
But what is there to do?
My house phone has no way to check
Just who is on the line.
(You see, I’m really not hi-tech;
I guess the fault is mine.)
But still, there has to be a way
To stop those robo-calls.
It puts a damper on my day
And sometimes even galls.
A voicemail on my husband’s phone
Said he must call right back
Or else in jail he would be thrown,
An interesting tack.
We’ve heard it all so did not fret
At tactics they’re employing,
A price we pay for life today – yet,
Still, it’s so annoying!
