Bones gets picked up
and taken to a client’s home.  

Bones works his trick as usual,
but then the client starts
in verbally abusing him.  

The client calls him all kinds
of horrible names,
talks bad about Bones mother,
and generally tries to make
a fool of him.  

Bones doesn’t like
that very much,
however,
being of a philosophical nature,
he takes it all in stride.  

After all, it’s a big world,
and it’s full of strange
natured individuals.  

There’s really nothing
that can be done about it.  

He’s glad he pocketed
his money up-front,
and leaves the client
raving to himself.  

He gets out of there
before the guy starts
frothing at the mouth,
and spitting.

Bobby

Well pictured Bobby
The reality of it all isn't very pleasant but then the feelings for Bones being a survivor through it all makes one give him credit and want to wish bad on the low life client.

It seems Bones has the street smarts, and the alertness of an animal in the forest---he knows how to sense and escape danger.

Great read,

The worst things to swallow are bad comments on one's mother ...

It's not easy to ban anger, even while reading about it.

Love,

Thanks Eric,

For your kind thoughts towards Bones.  Some of his clients aren't very kind at all.

For reading and your kind comments.

Yes, indeed, Bones knows what he's doing, he's a professional.

Thanks dear Ida,

I agree with you.  Bones did handle the situation very well.  Mainly, he got his money.

Love Bobby

Thanks dear Margherita,

What you say is very true.  This client was just plain nasty, and spiteful.

Love Bobby

Thanks Yann,

For the kind words on this poem.

I'm very pleased that you are getting to know my old friend Bones.  He was a good guy.

Bobby - Bones does get into some situations but manages to get out of the bad ones. Good luck Bones...
