He Is More Than Idle

He is more than idle, Idleness his Idol; A sloth without bridle, Along sidewalks sidle … Now begun to languish And had been in Anguish; You can guess: Empty Tank! His heart this morning sank; Why won’t it in basement For a rump on pavement? A human to demote Or send to camps remote; One I would never quote Nor in election vote.
