To Jail He Went.

Goldfinch60



He was sent to jail!

My brother was sent to jail!

He was not pleased about it,

He refused to eat,

He spat and swore at all,

At all who came near him.

He then started throwing things,

Throwing things everywhere.

We then came to that decision,

That decision that changed his life,

We would never do it again,

We would never play Monopoly again.

    Good write Gold. Monopoly's got silly now. they have skyscrapers too. if you land on one and have to pay up, that's it usually.
    Doh! I thought I was playing monopoly, but it was a church asking for more money! Some get greedy.

    Surprise endings are always great whether movies, books or poems. Only in life itself can they be problematic. A fun read Andy
