I don't think I'll make it in tomorrow <br />Got something growing on my neck! <br />Don't ask me what I think it is <br />My doctor says he really doesn't care! <br />Said I look like that green fella, 'Shrek! ' <br /> <br />So I won't be coming in tomorrow <br />No matter how much I'm going to be missed! <br />But if you can find it in your heart <br />Slip some extra pay please in my check. <br /> <br />You see my wife has recently left me <br />And my baby needs a new pair of shoes. <br />And the rent is over two months late! <br />And my bills are way, way over due! <br /> <br />I hope you get this letter today <br />I handed it right on over to my mail man! <br />Oh, I didn't have a stamp you see <br />So would you pay him if you can?<br /><br />Linda Winchell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/don-t-think-i-ll-make-it-in/
