Bark of a Rabid Dog

A chameleon can change his name many times But it won't free him from the guilt of his crimes He hides behind fake names To play malicious games A gutter snipe who'd dance for nickles and dimes From keyboard he types a harassment and threat His pathetic appetite for evil is sharpened to abet A coward's way of life Belligerence is rife His abhorrent past is something he should regret On and on he barks like a rabid dog in the night I know a bulldog who'd take him down in one bite One more bully beaten A geezer, a cretin One who always seems to be spoiling for a fight

A savage trifecta, JL. Guess my ignorance is bliss in this case. Just here for the artistry. ;o)

Exactly. Maybe he'll lay himself to rest, yet again. Thanks, Mark!

Yes, he's back. I doubt we'll ever get rid of him. It's an obsession, a compulsion for him.

A creepy crawler who defiles himself with nastiness in word and deed. He must really be deficient in more ways than one if he gets a kick out of being the Freddie Kruger type.

Yep. A dastardly demon. I'll send soup mail in a bit.
