Such a Deal!

"Such a deal!" Was hisexclaim,

"It's meant for only you.

It's so good I'm almostashamed!"

It seemed too good to be true.

The blarney laid so heavy on

His pitch as if he knew

He'd caught a rube,

He'd snared a cube,

The fat was in the stew.

Then backing back and taking pause

To get a better view,

Reflecting on the cold hard facts,

My skepticism grew.

Pitfalls started creeping in.

The devil wants his due.

Decisions made in haste are

Usually the ones you rue.

Whenever someone offers something

Too good to be true,

It's best to seek a different route

And skip that avenue.
