'Idiot's Companion'

By soosoncrack

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Arrogance fills the air emissions of self proclaimed royalty Possessing audacity and gall expecting the people's loyalty An attitude expected from such a selfish breed Not sure what they want so I bring them what they need An "Idiot's Companion" is what they call my trade Here's an orientation of how the game is played You hire me to stay by your side Not to polish shoes or make sure they're tied To protect you from yourself and the stupid things you say Make sure things you do don't get in your way At the first sign of ineptitude I slap the crap out of you once Lowering the probability of your becoming a dunce We'll make bad habits good at least those we can't quit Our slap awake therapy eliminates stupid shit What've you got to lose? You poor miserable slob You need the shit slapped out of you and I need a freakin' job Written April 21st, 2002 © on Apr 21 2002 10:48 AM PST   0 • 14
