Chump Bets

It’s hard to insult an unrepentant man with one ear,
not impossible,
but darn difficult.

Asking the definitions of people’s names, who you’ve just met,
can prove embarrassing.

It’s okay to trust what someone tells you.
(Unless they ask you to believe in it.)

Over on that “manly” planet,
the latest fashion tool is
a steam powered hair hammer.

The detailed blue prints of everyone else’s failures
are just awaiting your eternal perusal in, “Critics Hell.”

Let’s dee-spense, with the sus-spence, and clue you into the latest;
going back into the back stretch, with a comfortable lead
is that all time favorite filly – Raging Hormones.
(All those holding “chump bets” may now commence sweating.)
