Elevator Orator

He's the type for whom it's an instructive display of authority to talk loudly in a crowded elevator with impunity; whether or not those around fume or explode in quiet violence, he neither wants to know nor cares, doesn't make a hill of beans difference; but woe to him, for there she is who has mastered down to a fine art the showing of self-righeous, dry indignation of a mocking heart, who tells him even at his best moment, he can never be charming and, for a loudmouth, now's his worst moment, worst place, worst timing!
