Vistas of Perennial Happiness
Remorse
A dainty dish great minds consume
On the humble horse
Small minds can’t begin to assume
In their bid to earn fame
Coveted in the confines of smallness
Vanquished, extinguished and distinguished in blame
As they claim a dose of sadness
That leaves them empty
In body and spirit
When small minds to their detriment court and escort Humpty Dumpty
In his writ
To promote megalomania
Blown oversize
In consort with the mania
Whose prize
Swells small egos
Granting them soporific succor
Upon lumbering them with cargoes
Of ravenous rancor
While the humble
In their modesty and meekness
Shamble forth and stumble
Upon vistas of boundless bliss and happiness.
