Fake indifference
Strength from within
Let the ******** begin
Feigning ignorance
Pretend happy circumstance
Did you plan this? Was it your intent?
All you are is a plastic apparatus
Philosophunculist
You invent - drastic fiction
Completely spent
Of all sense – covered in dents
Your rent will not - stop your eviction
Delve in a cesspool of thoughts
Awaken! Panticulation!
Meretricious offense
Wild and vagarious
Outrageous Hindrance!
Deliverance
Auspicious pontification
Kills me
Inch by
inch
The Family Philosophunculist
By Elton Camp
His yearly visits we detest
Our patience put to the test
He’s the worst we ever saw
My obnoxious bro-in-law
Naught that you can name
That’s not his special game
Every subject an expert
Odiously, he’s so curt
None may dare to doubt it
That he knows all about it
He’s to be held in great awe
The smartest we ever saw
How we wish he would desist
The family philosophunculist
