It behooves you to hike them
Or better, please spike them.
To lunch breaks and #sleep, just say no!”
(This is but one of many reasons why I’m a ("recovering #lawyer.")

A young groom had a habit of #flirting,
Which his bride found a tad disconcerting:
"You agreed once we wed
You'd put flirting to bed.
Stop reverting or YOU'LL soon be hurting."

He was paid a steep price
For his writing, concise.
His prose was, like Gene, lean and mean.

And was tricked into kidnapping Gran."

Assisted by brandy,
And last, but not least, try escape.
