My name is Sam.
And I scam.
Call the ladies, “Madame”.
Then sell her “ham.”
(which is really spam).
I don’t really give a d____.
It’s all for a buck.
Of course, she’s a sitting duck.
Too bad she’s struck
By a scheme gone amuck.
It’s all in the ad
Where she’d been had.
I don’t care if she’s sad.
I’m glad.
She fell for the ham a in a can.
Rushing home to put it in a frying pan.
What a dope!
Next week I’ll try soap!
Ok, here’s the scoop on Spam in Hawaii. According to Google, Hawaii consumes more Spam than any state in our union (6 million cans a year). It all began in WWII, GI’s were served the salty lunchmeat because it didn’t require refrigeration and had a long self life.

We needed some poetry and humor this week! My husband loves that fried spam and eats it with a flourish–I don’t even want to be around when that happens. Am wondering what the history of it and why it’s so popular in Hawaii??

Sam lives in Hawaii. He’s got the whole darn state eating that stuff. You must have visited Hawaii lately.

You can’t scam me with spam because I like it. Even fried. I’ve tried. I haven’t died. Give me Sam’s address.
