Winter Colds


I really enjoy my winter colds

They please me greatly

I quite often stand next

To people infected with colds

So that I might share in their good fortune

My dreams are something else

I have called them Mortgage Fraud as a collective

My name is Dave and I Dave to consider

A series of mortgage applications placed in front of me

My task is to guess which of these are fraudulent

The prize on offer is a bucket of coloured water

Which if invested with sense can be very valuable

If however one guesses incorrectly then the anti-prize

Is to be woken up in the small hours by a large lorry

Which would be delivering long girders to your residence

I was rather good at this game

As I always spotted the crooks

There was one behaviour that exposed them

As when the interview ended and I was fully infected They would always give me a pink tie
