Now what!
There goes her trip to
the city!
There goes her respite!
Bugger this,
just when she finds a great
deal at the Marriott,
clean walk to the casino
Now this
Won’t be able to get across
the bloody bridges
with all the road rage
who knows
what’s next?
Shouldn’t have taken
away the tolls
Everything was orderly til
this
Who’s gonna pay for the bridge
maintenance
She is, you are, that’s who
Not for a couple toonies a day neither
Might as well forget the weekend
Who wants to be stuck in traffic
for hours,
The overhead walkway helps
when you get there
BUT
getting there
Who knows ?
Bugger this!
