Dumb Mirror
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who is the fairest of them all?
Sure not you, you silly dope
In this field you have no hope.
Mirror mirror judge of all
Can't you see some beauty small
If its there its sure hid
That's why I answered as I did
All your teeth have fallen out
You have wrinkles all about
Most all your hair has gone away
What is left is turning grey
And your chin is double now
A stomach that would fit a cow
In heavy folds your skin doth sag
To tell the truth your just a hag
And as I thought to answer back
The glass hung there began to crack
It shattered and fell to the floor
To end its lies forevermore
For my Grandfather........He gets it...
