Got Paid

I said I'd get paid doing this.

I bragged,
I nagged,
I wouldn't stop;
I was a HUGE pain in the neck.

And tho' you tired of my chatter,
just today, on a platter,
I was handed a reality check.

Interesting, but leaves much unsaid.
Who paid the cheque.
But more-so, love the reality check.

Clever, yet I feel it has more than the few words speak.
