L acking the common sense of a maggot
O bviously attention starved as a child
S orry excuse for a human being
E merging from a place where dung was piled
R ejected for a lack of talent
S tuck in a self pity life beguiled

I saw plenty of those persons you describe above on a now-defunct poetry site. They had no idea what poetry was about, and they gave me low ratings for some of my best efforts.

YES, a pile of Losers is what you describe in your poem. Why do they have to be maggots? Hope all is well with you and family. love phyl

this is funny Vince. A very effective Acrostic! Lays it down right where it is and with humor. And thanks for the comment on Balloon payment. Much appreciated . He told Gadafi he should step down and relinquish power.... Some nerve. He' is the one who needs to step down but the media loves him and most people listen to the media like they were gods of a sort. Tsk tsk

Yes, this site has been blighted by such low-life recently. A good, caustic write with real artistic merit too! Regards, Robert.
