Trap

Trap Do you think this is an intelligent trap? No! This is ignoble with its reek of crap. He’s a man of substance, stature and gait Who can’t be lured by such cheap bait. God bestowed him with a rich reward: His foes hoist self on their own petard! He’ll not move, he’ll time on end linger Till with anxiety the trap pulls off finger. When time moves his foe will not wait Or until bait becomes unattractive bait He’ll make him hope but all for naught Till to Nothing retires the stupid thought. To good use let’s our time do bestow With love, to watch our gardens grow! JM 28th December 2013
