Shooting Others Trouble

The best intention is still rude, If into others’ affairs intrude: As two hit each other over food And you don’t over restraint brood Nor from the drama keep away: A begging role of a stowaway … For this resent I John Jude Whom I address as The Rude And would maliciously exclude From honors I should him include. The intruder shooting others’ trouble Could his house end in rubble, For its rebuilding spend double, The clean-shaven keeping a stubble.
