Petty Man
Here comes
The petty man
Who hums
A silly scan
He thinks
In awkward urge
To link
A whiny surge
He dwells
On brilliant stuff
To tell
More than enough
He drools
Upon loose thought
To pool
What fancy plots
He smiles
As if to show
Deep style
In rust that grows
He wears
A profound face
And bears
A mellow trace
He feels
That not much more
Can thrill
An empty core
He knows
So much of truth
That grows
Sheer ample proof
He runs
Along such bits
That sun
Such cryptic wit
Here grime
Greets dense profound
Trips rhyme
To seize odd bounds
This man
On the sad verge
Can blend
A cranky purge.
