You're still smarting from having to deal with
a used car salesman, right?

I always feel like I've been raped after dealing
with car salesmen, (new or used). They're all
a bunch of lying bastards.

Unfortunately, Stoney1 doesn't know anything about you or your background, R&R, and so pokes fun with innocence. But anyways . . .

Welcome back - I hope that from the sombre tone of this poem that your legal issues have not turned against you . . ? If they have, you know you'll always have a responsive audience to vent at here - its free and always open, unlike modern justice systems . . .

Excellent work, as always. Hope you're around for a while . . .

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
