Cut the Ties
I Am a Scottish Man of Thrift
Wasting Money I Give Short Shrift
I Make Do and Mend, I Makeshift
I Smelled a Problem Easily Sniffed
A Time for Action Must Be Swift
What She's Doing Will Cause a Rift
As in My Wallet She Would Sift
And All My Money She'd Uplift
Not a Borrowing, Not a Gift
Simply Stealing, a Simple Lift
She Never Was a Spendthrift
Man That Got Me Really Miffed
Found Her Drunk Totally Squiffed
Of Cheap Vodka Vomit She Whiffed
Tempted to Violence She Needs Biffed
I Have to Help Her Stand and Reshift
She Needs to Take an Upper Gearshift
My Choice Is Just to Cut Her Adrift
Wasting Money I Give Short Shrift
I Make Do and Mend, I Makeshift
I Smelled a Problem Easily Sniffed
A Time for Action Must Be Swift
What She's Doing Will Cause a Rift
As in My Wallet She Would Sift
And All My Money She'd Uplift
Not a Borrowing, Not a Gift
Simply Stealing, a Simple Lift
She Never Was a Spendthrift
Man That Got Me Really Miffed
Found Her Drunk Totally Squiffed
Of Cheap Vodka Vomit She Whiffed
Tempted to Violence She Needs Biffed
I Have to Help Her Stand and Reshift
She Needs to Take an Upper Gearshift
My Choice Is Just to Cut Her Adrift

Good choice there David. Cut her adrift indeed. Best thing you could ever do!

I know I'm not supposed to, I'm really sorry buuut my goodness this tickled my thought. Also, shiiit that just ain't right no matter which way it cuts. In my defense you were spot on with your rhyme, love the write despised the situation. Much Respect,

No bullshit
did I sniff,
I must agree,
set her adrift
and
as for rhymes,
I will say this,
none were forced
and none were missed.
Great read, my friend.
