Man Erects Statue of Himself
Man Erects Statue of Himself
By Elton Camp
In front of his own house it’s placed
No public park has been disgraced
Some seem to think it odd or funny
But he’s spending his own money
But if public funds he had used
He could then rightly be accused
But as it is, as far as I can see
Nobody else’s business can it be
There are many who like to criticize
Finding it somehow wrong in their eyes
In fact, I just think I might do the same
As bronze testimony to my good name
Passers-by will see it standing there
If they don’t like it, what do I care!
