Vanity and Vexation

Ahhhhhh.... they make me so mad! A fool, a buffoon, an unruly lad, A prankster, a trickster, a tattler, A gigolo, a lounger and an idler; An imposter, a pretender and a loafer, A party crasher, a tailgater and a golfer, A boondoggle or a task of a tall order, And the deals done under-the-counter! I often tear my hair out at a silly pun or at a smart aleck who can out-run, A hoax or a scam drives me crazy which is absurd, witless or sleazy. But look into my eyes lovingly and whisper sweet nothing softly, Hold my hands and be pretty sexy And oh ... Man, I’ll just go crazy! ~"What Annoys You?" contest by Frank Herrera.
