The Art of Sycophancy

Most people unabashedly cultivate this art For rising on the ladder of progression fast Never mind debasing oneself in the court And act audaciously putting aside all doubt. They are singularly motivated by self-interest That guides their path through the conglomerate With honey in the mouth and a smile on the lips Attract everyone around using suitable tactics. Never tired of taking rounds to appease the boss Forever full of praise for traits he doesn’t possess Extolling his missing virtues in front of others An art by itself very few really can have access. It allows rising incredibly fast in the hierarchy This is seldom possible through the routine way That makes this art temptingly charming utterly Very few can cultivate this aptitude so superbly. The ill-equipped ones with acerbic tongues Can never ever dream of acquiring such skills Despite owning ample talent and adeptness Certainly hang about on the back of progress.
