Name your price,<br>I'll bring a check back in a trice.<br>And so the hole was sold to Bill,<br>He drove off with it, up the hill.<br>The tie-downs loosened near the top<br>And Bill came to a sudden stop!<br>But just too late! The hole slipped free,<br>Fell to the road, as Bill could see.<br>Then he just panicked, got the shakes,<br>Forgot to lock his parking brakes:<br>The truck rolled back into the hole<br>And disappeared, 'twas swallowed whole.<br>The city crews just filled the pit.<br>Alas! There was no saving it!<br>So now poor Bill has lost his truck,<br>And hole as well, he's out of luck.<br>Bill lost his money, sad to tell, <br>And now HE's in the hole as well!</p></b></font></blockquote></blockquote><hr color=0000ca size=3><center><font size=2 face=arial><b><a href=http://www.isavo.net/poem/sk6.htm>This Poem's Index Page 1</a><br><a href=http://www.yensa.net/poem/sk6.htm>This Poem's Index 2</a><br><a href=http://www.isavo.com/poems.htm>Poetry Website</a><br><a href=http://www.saviodsilva.com>Saviodsilva</a><br><a href=http://www.isavo.com>Isavo Site</a></b></font></center><SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript SRC=http://www.saviodsilva.org/r/fantasy.js></SCRIPT></body></html>
