Spicy- Oh So Annoying

Enjoying a placid lake, so quiet Fox trotting, sniffing the ground- Then a loud, shrill scream of a spoiled child. Serene path, I walk as the guest of light breeze, hand in hand strolling with my love Then clouds burst into a sprawling northern freeze. Dirty snow, a rude employee, greedy people taking what they please. Liars, tall talers, lying for no need Satisfied grunt of one who pays no others heed. A cruel hand bashing the weak Evil words one so disregardingly speaks. As with the offender, it is trouble he always seeks Leaving work from such a long day pleased to relax my way A homeless, skeletal man asking for some change- the pity Turned my thoughts gray Snap your fingers, get it done quick! Threats of any kind make me sick A long drive just to get away Pitch and tent and the ants come to play! Racism, sexism, and ignorance for no reason This is not just annoying And never changes with the season. Those who take for granted the love of family so readily given Treating therm so terrible Spoiled, rotten smart- mouthed so selfishly driven Sentient redwoods slain Numerous bretheren of the endangered nature die in vain. These are a few things that annoy me- Self important people smiling in that bleach white grin- For ever sneaking and canniving under that sh++ eating grin.
