Robo-scams

Our lives vie in an arena

akin to the coliseum in Rome.

The foes are just as dangerous,

and oft they strike us in our home.

 

By e-mail, phone or Internet

with ploys to catch us unaware,

they try to hold us in their net

while they our money snare.

 

They’re worse than human cannibals...

some live off us as would a tick.

Though in the darkness they now live,

in a cell throw all quick.
