Eyes growing green as
They see so many laugh and play
Never counting the cost
An accountant whose ledger is
Always in the red
Not firm enough to be firm with others
Or to show them how
Soft lump too much self-indulged
Unfit for nobler times or harder
But suited only to the rot and decay
Of too much fat in the body politic
Going gangrene because bloodless
Hoping the amputation never comes
And laziness trumps vanity
Keeping the liposuction away
