Spicy- Oh So Annoying

Enjoying a placid lake, so quiet
Fox trotting, sniffing the ground-
   Then a loud, shrill scream of a
spoiled child.

Serene path, I walk as the guest of light breeze,
hand in hand strolling with my love
   Then clouds burst into a sprawling
northern freeze.

Dirty snow, a rude employee, greedy people taking 
what they please.
   Liars, tall talers, lying for no need
Satisfied grunt of one who pays
no others heed.

A cruel hand bashing the weak
Evil words one so disregardingly speaks.
   As with the  offender, it is trouble 
he always seeks

Leaving work from such a long day 
pleased to relax my way
    A homeless, skeletal man asking
for some change- the pity
Turned my thoughts gray

Snap your fingers, get it done quick!
Threats of any kind make me sick
   A long drive just to get away Pitch and tent
and the ants come to play!

Racism, sexism, and ignorance 
for no reason
       This is not just annoying
And never changes with the season.

Those who take for granted
the love of family so readily given
    Treating therm so terrible
 Spoiled, rotten smart- mouthed
so selfishly driven

Sentient redwoods slain
Numerous bretheren of  the 
   endangered nature die in vain.

These are a few things that annoy me-
Self important people  smiling in that
bleach white grin-
   For ever sneaking and canniving
under that sh++ eating grin.
