I liked what I saw
a performance without flaw
so I bought my ticket
a ticket to your showExciting at first
thrills and spills galore
it quenched my thirst
and I hungered for moreBut your show turned sour
becoming darker and darker
Refund? no, keep the money
this show, is no longer funny

Unfortunately, some shows that begin well can’t sustain it. It’s good to know when to leave, yeah?

Been there, definitely bought the wrong ticket. I relate to this poem so much! Smiles.

I never asked for a refund but I most certainly did walk out on the show! Good write!

Thank you! It seems pointless asking for a refund while life ticks by.

Sometimes we realize too late and end up lopsided while watching the show. Great write!

I think being stuck in a show can be a nightmare… leave before it’s too late.
