did you honestly think I could let go unchallenged
such an insult to my honor
that I could not lift myself out of my comfortable bed
and mangle the fool who called me lazy?

a man can't even take his rest
without being called out by meddling fools
whose idea of power is prey on the peace-loving
while avoiding the trolls who'd kill them for getting in the way

here close your eyes and hold out your hands
while I shit in your palms and run
there at least I've earned the right
to denounce my oppressors the ones who'll stop at nothing

to fortify their idiocy with the arrogance of the tiny
safe as a crab in the crotch
