 Unsolicited Opinions

         

You've had 

some work done, 

haven't you?

 

Your slant 

on the war 

is irrelevant.

 

You call

this shit

poetry?

 

Mints won’t cure

that breath.

 

Are you

dulling your

senses too?

Or are

you just

being you?

 

Your canvases are

big; your ideas are

not.

 

Still married

to that loser?

 

All that charitable

busywork?

No cure

for your

class guilt.

 

You're special,

aren't you?

Bless your little heart.

 

Your endless

need for

reassurance. Tiresome.

 

You bring

out the worst

in me.

 

You’d better master

ingratiation strategies or

else no one will

come to your funeral.
