Ugh, ugh ~~ a 'Mind the Sign' poem

Oh yes, a little bribe can solve it all. I might decide to park there after all then.
Love the humorous wordplay, in your poem, Jim, as it brought a smile, to me. For that alone, this poem earns a huge approval, from me. Thanks.
It seems to happen most in countries where people are poorest, have you noticed?
Almost seems like you are describing a game of golf ;) Frustrating when the haves and have nots compare....even the right strokes can guarantee a win.
I love the direction you took in this poem. It's a clever take on the picture.
Very wry poem.
Your humor is always something to look forward to, Dr Jim! The pic itself is indicative of what you have in store!

Oh dear! Very clever, but kind of awful to contemplate. Take care, Jim. k.
