The Lost Art of Insults

I miss the days of savage wit :

Scoundrel, knave

Rapscallion ;

Loser, dweeb,

Weenie;

You little shit.

Language sanitized,

Sentiments anesthetized,

On the altar of nicely correct.

No more dodgeballs to the face

Rather gang-stalking botflies invade your space,

“Owning” you like a little bitch—

NOT really you insufferable twit.
