PSA
From a Tired, Old Fart
NOTICE:
What follows is a PSA
From one whose patience ends today.
His tolerance for blatant gall
Has hit a necessary wall.
~
No longer will this one allow
The pompous, “holier-than-thou”
A space within his heart or mind
To store the drivel from your kind.
~
To those who offer their support
With no disclosure or report
That states what backing me will cost:
You are not welcome here. Get lost.
~
And if you're here to make a case
Against those of a given race,
Be warned, this one will close the door
On you and all that you stand for.
~
This time-worn soul has had enough
And consequently, will rebuff
Without the slightest hint of pause
The words of any who would cause
~
Unrest, dissent, or discontent
Based on a rumor or event
As told by members of the press
Or politi – but I digress...
~
No altruism is claimed here,
Only a wish not to hear
The bleating of a blinded sheep
Or troll whose thoughts are all but deep.
~
Please, stand on notice, friends and foes,
I'll read your poetry and prose,
And comment where appropriate,
But blowhards can kiss this guy's butt.

Author's Note: Not my nicest work, but no apologies for this one. It's more about those I deal with elsewhere than Vocal and Vocalites. Thanks for reading and for any feedback you care to leave!
