Come in, come in, come in to my place
I promise I will leave not one tiny trace
No one will ever know what I have done
Cause I do my job then rid myself of the gun
My fingerprints they'll never be able to find
I promise no evidence is ever left behind
My fee is excessive but barely covers my cost
But don't worry you won't even notice the loss
You won't find any one else willing to do this nasty job
Unless you know some one connected to the mafia or mob
Just leave me a blank check to fill in as I need
And this problem of yours will disappear with such speed
I say all this with fingers crossed behind my back
so I can get money from my clients for a small bag of smack
I've never done the jobs that they hired me to do
I just take my share of smack and snort it in the loo
Disgruntled clients soon will be knocking down my door
I'm afraid they'll find me stretched out on the floor
With my head in the toilet and my feet with no shoes
They'll just think I've drunk a little too much booze
This is what happens when you live a life of crime
and the boss wants you to write a poem that rhymes
I am a little embarrassed to put my name on this thread
I really should have quit while I was a head
Come in, come in, come in to my place
I'm sorry to say I've left this world in disgrace
Now that I've written it I may as well post it
I sure hope this is the worst it can get...

Aww, Sis... is there anything I can do to help???... like hold your head under the toilet water
I hope you weren't too wacked out to flush... eeewww 
This is really cute and I wish you best of luck in the contest
luv ya
I think you left out A word in the next to last line... may as 'well' post it?
and did the inspiration for this come from a certain conversation we had last night

Hey, thanks for the edit..I count on you for that...I suppose subconsciously it is a reflection on my conversation with you last night...I didn't realize it at the time...I was about finished when we talked and just added a couple more lines..the ones of apology ...this is probably the worst thing I have posted...I am embarrassed to have any one read it...now I am going to change the title...
I got another good grade on the last assignment...Wahoo!!! Now I am working on # 10...double digets and half way home...

Hey, I think it's pretty good and fits the contest well. Not sure which catagory, though... was there a crazy man's catagory
And you're doing great with the haiku class

i can relate a bit but only to a few lines
My fee is excessive but barely covers my cost
But don't worry you won't even notice the loss
"You won't find any one else willing to do this nasty job
Unless you know some one connected to the mafia or mob"
love these lines
hope you do well in the contest my friend
