in Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose Tags: "Three by M.E./Rhymes of the Times", 2008, Budget, Food, Fuels, Gas and Oil, Gasoline and diesel usage and pricing, Given bet, Highest yet, List, Mary Elizabeth Rumsey, Modern Mother Goose-On the Loose, Poetry, Price of petroleum, Rhyme, Summer prices
Gas prices are the highest yet-
Sure, they are in a given bet.
.
How dare they rise so high-
How are we supposed to get by?
.
Not to be rude-
But, that extra money could be used for food.
.
Or something else, like as in a big list-
I’m upset about this high gas price tryst.
.
Except for the summer of 2008, without
rhyme or reason, the prices blasted off
into outer space.
Higher gas prices are just too hard to face.
.
Gas prices are the highest yet-
Sure, they are in a given bet.
