A Paranoid Dwarf
A paranoid dwarf
A paranoid dwarf
Working at a Lagos wharf
Does fear his ending up in a fridge
By crossing a suspension bridge
Offering a picture of a farm’s ridge
And doesn’t a dime care
That the other workers he does scare
Before now not hurt on a single hair
Walking the bridge as a pair
Soon, everyone is annoyed
About dealing with a paranoid
In courage plainly void
And to make an impact buoyed
Now everybody knows This Mister
Enough to loudly whisper
That not every dwarf
Barefacedly acting the rough
Is necessarily tough.
