His antics were corny, ridiculously overdone and nefarious

Uncle Joe spends his days on death row,
for killing his best friend and Aunt Flo.
He found them in bed,

Uncle Didi stays in abbeys and churches.

Behind the church is a shop,
  where he used to work and chop.

Premium Member Cry Uncle

   Neither bells rang
     nor rifles sounded
   The transition quiet
     neither looting nor riots

   A veritable coup
     pulled off by old pros ~ 
   helpless, pinned to the ground
     Cry ‘Uncle,’ Joe, it’s time to go
