There once was a ramshackle man
Watching three bankers loading a van.
He hit two on the head,
Told the other, “You’re dead
‘less you put all the dough in my can.”
So the robber held out an old tin
Repeating, “Put all the money within!”
But the banker got scared,
Fell down and declared,
“I’d help but I have no way in!”
Now the robber saw a safe locked,
And he knew that in jail he’d be mocked.
He hit two out of three,
And now he did see,
That the conscious one’s face was all pocked.
“How old are you, Banker?” asked robber.
“I’m an intern,” he said with a slobber.
“It’s my summer work,
I’m not even a clerk,
They’re the ones with the code, but they’re clobbered!”
I haven't been good at following instructions either. But I love writing doggerel. So I hope Heather sees the bit of doggerel I've posted below,
