Simply Stupid
I've been called fat
by the obese
and dumb by the clown
Mocked what I see
when blind had a frown
Favored the morons
who said I was great
and clapped for the wolfman
who urged me up late
Said I was simple
to those who'd had help
Asked for their mercy
when they'd stop to yelp
Changed for the others
who saw what I did
Knowing them all
and all that they hid
Paid for their crimes
in all I had left
and made more than money
from alms I have theft
