TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
I’ve got a credit card or two
I don’t want any more;
And yet the application forms
Keep crashing through my door.
“Everyone could use more cash;
Why not take out a loan?
Our rates are very reasonable.
Come on, just lift the phone”
I’m tempted to, I really am,
Because I then could pay
A dozen nagging charities
And make them go away
My name is entered in the draw
- The biggest prize to date;
Yet I don’t want the book, the car,
Commemorative plate,
The holiday for two abroad
The time-share pad in Spain,
Encyclopedias, CDs:
I’d like to make that plain.
No, what Id really like to get,
Before going round the bend,
Is something far more valuable:
A letter from a friend
