A Rant
I hate bad drivers and young whippersnappers
Who ignore old Bing and choose Gangsta Rappers.
The lack of good manners in young and old too
Makes me shake my grey head and wonder just who
Began this thought that the whole world starts with me -
While no one owes them a thing - far as I can see.
I dislike protestors who ignore the facts,
And push some idea while the truth it lacks -
Mostly I dislike those of this world who treat
Lady Liberty like a whore in the street -
Some would take all that the kind Lady offers,
And steal with both hands from her hard earned coffers.
Still she's a battle hardened lady, my friend,
No doubt she'll shrug it off and smile in the end.
