Sort of primitive and hairy
On first encounter his face
Was frankly somewhat scary
He could .fight and he could cuss
Run a marathon without dropping

Dander Raised By a Dingbat

A dingbat had brain badly infected
Which we determined and detected
Condemns, complains and is analytical
Causing chaos and being quite critical.

Was idiot and moron we did not love
