Grumpy's Return Volley
If very hard read,
take the log from your eye -
or perhaps it's the wrong creed
meriting such custard pie.
Language archaic?
Well so what if it scans
Neither Norse nor Aramaic,
I'm certain most understand.
A trifle obscure?
My due consternation!
Still … are you certain 'it's ... sure ...
not poor imagination?
Leave critical muck.
Produce own Odyssey
Rather than to be stuck
In morass of jealousy.
