Overzealousness and assiduousness...

rew4er2nail

now propels yours truly towards restitution
courtesy sophisticated mountebank,
whose criminal mind
filched mine banknotes
rationed for when I exhibit decrepitude.

Cutthroat robber baron

re: newly minted vandal

an alumni matriculated


from school for scandal
a sheep in wolf's clothing
said culprit I call Randall
fleeced me such
more likely than not,
I will be forced to panhandle
and read book of Matthew
courtesy light of candle.

Mein kampf cloaked
with appurtenances of Medieval age
since money bags bereft
of mine lifetime earnings wage.

Bills come due without means to pay
not surprising angry feelings I display,
cuz he who whisked off with bounty
mutinous wordsmith of Schwenksville
yearns to hunt down and slay
thief who ran off with my loot
about eighteen plus days from yesterday
depending on whether I count back

from June twentieth, or twenty first
(before my troubles
seemed so far away)
and quite purposeless to pray
nor doth vindictiveness
appeal to me an aging baby
boomer pronouncing c'est la vie
another rhyme without reason oy vey.

I still smart even
long after hashtagging culprit
as misbegotten rat fink
snagged me as his quarry,
wherewithal of mine absent
nary a handy dandy blues clues
surrendering legal tender
without suspicion nor question
totally trusting typecast
mischievous loathsome devil.

Truth be told,
I take nine prescription medications
(for severe social anxiety,
mild depression, and palmar hyperhidrosis),
and often feel (dazed and confused)
in a heavily drugged stupor.

All sense and sensibility
went out the window
on what began
as an ordinary Tuesday without Morrie.

 

I already filed a police report

after being milked dry as a bone

for above mentioned funds
dirty deeds done dirt cheap
mean miscreants cached (>15 k),

which incident occurred

encompassing the dates

June 20th and 21st 2023,

whereby an Apple tech impersonator

scared the dickens out of me

by claiming Macbook Pro

replete with countless Trojan Horses,

 

computer viruses, malware, et cetera,

and mislead me to withdraw cash

out checking and savings accounts

then going to the nearest ATM

to convert cash

into bitcoin cyber currency

vis a vis courtesy creating

easy to pluck virtual pursestrings

thru My Wallet.com

said funds siphoned immediately

into the coffers of hucksters.

 

Elizabeth Clark,
a licensed practical nurse,

(who approves prescription medication
electronically scripted to
Skippack Pharmacy)

suggested I create a gofundme page,
which thus far witnessed
absolute zero donations.

    'computer viruses, malware, et cetera,'
    the cruel forever targeting the vulnerable
    my father is scared to touch a computer
    they're all putrid maggots
    wish we could just go and stomp them all out
