Rhyming Is Also For Old Folk

had a quick look over your work my dear 
your acting the jerk is now crystal clear 
even though you are in your 78th year 
away from rhyming you could not steer 
pull that stick from out of your rear 
rhyming's not law, we don't have to adhere 
change gear, cheer, down a root beer 
place a finger in your cauliflower ear 
and stop deluding yourself, you are no pioneer 
throwing your intellectual spear so chevalier 
quit thinking in rhyme you domineer 
step out of your dusty cerebellum sphere 
give the kids back their style, don't smear 
folks like you make it suck around here
