The Plumber
The plumber came to fix a leak
That he repaired the other week.
"Defective part," is what he said,
Though I think "Shoddy work" instead.
This second visit had no charge.
(The first one had a fee quite large.)
We'll see if this time there's no drip
Requiring a triple trip.
Perhaps I'm simply rather dumb
But if a plumber cannot plumb,
He should admit he's not the type
And blame himself and not the pipe!
