Under the Skirt

A savvy transit cop observed
An action quite suspicious.
A perpetrator was engaged
In business most malicious.

His newspaper was subtly placed
Beneath a woman’s skirt,
While clipped to it, a camera pen
Took photographs, covert.

The victim was oblivious
That she was being snapped,
But soon the rogue photographer
Had handcuffs tightly clapped.

Ironically, the culprit
Is a well-esteemed M.D.,
Of all things a urologist,
Who sees these parts for free.

So why this weird behavior
When he’s far away from work?
He risked his whole career
For what his job had as a perk.

The lesson to be learned is that
A gal should be alert;
You never know what may be lurking
Underneath your skirt.

Good poem about a interesting/weird 'situation'... Maybe women should have their own 'surveillance' cameras beneath their skirts in order to 'know what may be lurking' ... ;-)) Terry

Nice descriptiveness and rhyming about a perverted individual and his quirky behavior.
