The lift was out, and people walked <br />down from the thirteenth floor <br />some also went (but never talked) <br />upstairs which was a chore. <br /> <br />I had a meeting with the man <br />from Daimler Chrysler there <br />had driven up in my big Jeep <br />to show a certain flair. <br /> <br />I'm always punctual by God <br />and time was running thin <br />I gave myself a sudden nod <br />and switched on my best grin. <br /> <br />Clicked into LOW, released the brake <br />and started up the wall <br />I was not sure if we would make <br />a window, they were small. <br /> <br />Well, in the end the penthouse was <br />ideal for the landing <br />I heard the oh's and oys and aaws, <br />the climb was quite demanding. <br /> <br />The president of Chrysler Jeep <br />asked me to park the brute <br />remarked that thirteen floors was steep <br />and offered me some fruit. <br /> <br />As you can see there ain't a thing <br />that stops my Juliette <br />and if you're looking for the king <br />you've found him and his pet.<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-lift-was-out/
