He lived his whole life always digging a hole,
From there he could never climb up,
He tried to do right, but he always did wrong,
For crime was the 'soup in his cup'.
He started quite young when he stole his first car,
It gave him a thrill and a rush,
He thought he was cool and could play his own game,
He drew a Full-House, not a Flush.
He tried to climb out of the hole he was in,
And thought he was holding an Ace,
But he was arrested for robbing a bank,
And now he is flat on his face.
His Full-House is prison, a 'hole-in-the-ground',
And that is the place he will stay,
Where he holds a Joker, which taunts him and laughs,
And torments his life everyday.

Good job, a lot of people think the STRANGEST things are cool... it's kind of appaling, really...and then, for instanse( i don't know how to spell it lol) if a person says that they are NEVER going to smoke, well then ytou see them a few tyears later, smoking as if theres no tomorrow. Many people get themselves into these 'holes', and they think it's easy enough to get out of, but that's not always the case, in fact most times it's just the opposite. But do people listen? Nooooo of COURSE they don't.But anyway, I must go, and read more of your peoms, and I'm really sorry about all of the long ones, hehe, but a lot of your peorty really makes me think, and well, you're a good listener, too^^ But seriuosly, if I'm annoying you at all, then tell me.
Hello David: enjoyed this one, it is a thrilling, and pulsating and hits home with - 'Crime does not pay!' message, loud and clear. A very fierce formula. Regards, Gregory
WOW!!! This is a really intresting piece of poetry. It is diffrent from the other poems that I have read of yours. I really enjoyed the poem. The poem had a nice flow and rythm to it. I really enjoyed the third stanza. Keep up the great work.
