Big ol’ Nose in the air

CEE

I’m guilty of a lot of uncouth
Of tasteless shit, uncaring one-liners
The things better folk did not say in
That better day of “You can’t say that!”
Simple censure, no apology
Basic NO NO
Miss Manners and Nancy Reagan
Had a kid
I said it all, sliced, diced, Cuisinart-ing
Dear old human weak spots
Then stomped on them with cleats,
I’m guilty of that, I say
I bear no actual guilt
Especially toward any who
Fleshed out, rebounding
Disappearing into Life
Until I googled up their strut,
King of Who Cares
Empress of Big Deal
Swelled head of How Does This Matter
Held high enough for nosebleeds

Remember “some people never learn”?
No One Does
We’re all biped USA and Soviet Union
