Why the ribs taste kinda funny

by Maria Francesca

Chintzy Charles has not been seen.
Stingy Steve is missing too.
Penny Pinching Pete is off the street -
Their wives just don't know what to do.

They've searched the city,
searched the woods.
They've searched from here to hell and back
but no one's seen them
since they stiffed the waitress at the old rib shack.

Author's Note: hmmm...kinda like chicken.

What I'd call humor with a bite! Well written.
