Description
I'll readily admit that poetry is NOT a writing strength for me. It doesn't mesh with my usual style.
But I've been annoyed by spam lately, and had this idea floating about in the back of my skull. So I finally got it out in text. Hope you like it!
My Lucky Day
Oh my, oh me,
I open my inbox,
and what do I see?
Great news and offers
all just for me!
I've won three lottos
and that's not all!
Four great job offers,
I just need to call.
Eight people died,
but that's not too bad.
They left me their money,
so they must have been mad!
A poor widowed lady,
she needs help you see.
But she'll let me keep half,
as part of my fee.
A bigger erection,
if that's what I seek...
I can have ten bottles,
by end of the week.
Rolex watches,
handbags galore,
Adobe Photoshop right to my Door.
With a point and a click,
it is all wisked away.
But the spam folder will refill
before the end of the day.

For some reason, I haven't been getting much spam lately. It seemed that I'd get the penis enlargement offers as well as the bigger breast offers. I wasn't sure what to think about that combination. Is there something about me that spammers know that I don't? And of course the occasional "hot babe" that saw my non-existant profile online, rich would-be heirs from another country, prescription pills, a few lotteries here and there and notifications that something was wrong with my eBay account (the only ones I bothered to open at all, just to see if it was a legit one, since I do use eBay from time to time). And the stuff that I couldn't figure out what they were trying to scam me out of. I gotta admit, I almost miss the damn things. Almost.

this is great, I sure can relate to it, too. I wish the people I KNEW wrote to me as often as the spammers do.

Very well said! In the War Against Spam I have taken to using their email addresses to subscribe to really nasty porn sites and also to offers on other spam mails. Hopefully they will wipe each other out.
