Poem Title:
Poem
In my close vicinity has come a neighbor Who is seen by all as a terrible bore No one is quite sure of his identity Nobody seems to endure his audacity If you go to him, he will bore you with his brag With stories, your precious time he will drag Once, with him if you have a chance encounter Never will you dare to have another When he begins his tedious yapping The listeners start turning and yawning Nobody, his words closely attend Not a single soul wants to be his friend He is equally puffed up as a pedant About displaying knowledge he is ardent But his learning is tawdry as a bauble If probed deep, it bursts like a bubble! Not that he lacks any sense of humor But he has some shady deals, runs the rumor Some say he runs an illegal distillery His past is history and his present a mystery Meeting him face to face is a fright People often flee for life from his sight Some say, he plays many a foul trick That he is seen as a pestering tick By his talk he makes others feel sick To him not even his children do stick Strange that he could easily be pleased If his hunger for praise could be appeased Among locals, he is called a bore His new entry, they sorely deplore If you have such an uncanny neighbor Will you bear him or totally ignore?
