I'm sure that someone knows the stats
Of rage attacks at bancomats.
"Apoplexy ATM"
Might be a better word for them -
The fuming state that you are in
When it says "No, that's not your PIN."
You try again, still doesn't work,
You're just about to go beserk
But keep control and swallow hard;
A third mistake, you lose your card!
Then, just before you do explode,
You realise you used the code
For your old card that lapsed last week
And now the bank has had the cheek
To link the new card to a set
Of different numbers to forget.
Some ATMs would seem to be
Intimidated now by me:
To forestall blows and words obscene
There's "Out of order" on the screen.
