So What Did You Do Today

If the answer is to the question So what did you do today Is I stole sweets off kid's Pulled the wing's off butterflies Kicked a walking stick away from under a pensioner & best of all Tried to sabotage a poetry contest Trolled and wrote some spiteful hurtful comments online Is it any wonder or surprise then That you haven't actually got any real friend's And maybe the reason why you do what you do and try make enemies out of other's Because if they didn't reply to your taunts You might just then turn your pen back upon yourself Only to find those who would have tried help you burnt No longer care enough anymore to try and pick you up Because you see a butterfly can not fly without wing's And so to there is only so much flax those only trying to help can put up with Before they eventually give up as well Admitting defeat and thinking what's the point anyway If all i am trying to do is good is causing me more heartache and harm No contest enjoy your win With only your dark webb weaved coat for heat and company Whilst you troll from your rusty old tin roof hoping it won't cave in Under the weight of spite and hate you spew Wishing to indoctrinate and hope other's will follow or fall And find there inner troll

Brilliant Christopher, this poem flows so well, seamlessly in fact, unlike the morons that cannot put a sentence together, so compensate for their shortcomings by spoiling the nicer things in life, like a harmless butterfly, or poetry contest, cheers David
