A HATE POEM (Written About oneself) 

 

Hey there! Walking with your head in the air

Looking down on us mere mortals with disdain

Do you really think you have the best brain? 

You swaggering, pompous know all

I’m forever plotting your downfall.

 

You nod at our jokes sagely

Then posit a theory airily

You were cottons and talk of abstinence

Shaming our silk ‘n’ gold with a cold countenance.

 

You jump up and take the mike

Whenever opportunity strikes

Then you sing, speak, put on an act

Don’t you have any tact?

Fooling others with your humble act -

But you don’t fool me 

 

I see through your ruses ‘n’ your subterfuges

You large weasel strutting about like a gazelle

Do you delude yourself that you’re fit for da Vinci’s easel?

Why do you dress up even to throw out the garbage

Like a film star at an inauguration, you cabbage?

You top heavy, arrogant, megalomaniac

I’m waiting to down you with a killer wisecrack.
