I don't particularly like this poem and I don't quite grasp it's concept. Incontrovertibly the repetition of "no radio" emphasizes the speakers point of her car not having a radio and how bad it is. Phrases such as "alarm is set to go off", "nothing of value","please do not break-in unnecessarily, thank you for your kind consideration" make it sound like her car has been broken into so many times that she's made sure there is nothing of value in it and it's just a piece of junk now. It almost sounds like this is what she wrote on a note and stuck on her car because she was so sick of it being broken into. Words such as "gone", "broken", and "warning" leave the poem with a negative feeling and puts together a frustrated tired tone.
The speaker is addressing the robber, who stole the radio out of her car three times, not to do it again because there is nothing of value in her car. The simple diction and short lines are used to emphasize that the car has "No radio No nuthin(no kidding). The title "Radio" and repetition of "radio" means that it was the first thing that she noticed was missing from the car. This rant to the robber to stop stealing changes from being angry and frustrated with phrases like "Nothing Left!" and "Warning!", and then the speaker pleads to the robber in desperation with the phrases "Please" and "Thank you For your kind Consideration". I agree with Hayley that it could be a note attached to her car.
