Mesmeristic Shtick
What do you take me for?
Some super intelligent human being?
On an ego trip like none you've ever seen?
One who is opinionated,
With a temperament that could be mean?
And someone that might say anything obscene?
'No.
No, not at all!
I wanted to congratulate you on your humility.
And your grasp of humanitarian issues,
Affecting today's society.'
Is that it?
'Yes...
That's it? '
And you had me waste my knack for dramatic 'flair'?
Hoping to hypnotize you with mesmeristic shtick!
Those accolades you pour on me bore.
'Well...
It's not like you are Robin Hood.'
It's a little late to compliment me,
With insults.
'You are outrageous.'
I shall not be teased!
