When You Forgo Your Purpose

BAT planted many seeds that brought him a great harvest For which many held his ideology with august interest With claims that Jagaban dealt with those political jagabats Who knows little or nothing about keeping political stats Since kingmakers hate to bow to their kings' orders For which their branded deviants got their cold shoulders BAT feels he should have a fair share of that opportunity But like Eden's taste of apple, he soiled his official dignity His celerity daily imposes punitive damages on his party His ambition is heading towards punition and thus unhearty BAT that should be adjectivised as the best or foremost kingmaker Makes himself runs around like an unhearty shaker What should be done by those hearty as bucks Is vied by a kind that makes Aso Rock looks like a centre of bullocks The swishing of the broom that has been sweeping Echoes the voice of another that won't promote good thinking
