Telemarketers

Out of Area
Was on the caller ID
I wonder which telemarketer
It can be

It was for children
Who were in need
Fro fallen sheriffs
Was they're plead

$25, $40, $50
What would suit you best?
I told her send the kids to me
I'll take care of the rest

She paused. I said, "I have no money"
She relies, "$10 will do,
How would you like to pay for that?"
I replied," With love that is true!"

Ma'am I am serious
Well, so am I
It should be against the law
For a child to cry

I hung up!
