Analysis of Simple Little Flagger
Simple flagger what is wrong
are poems not for you,
You just flag them night and day
because your stars are few.
Just because you are no good
we all pity you,
You just have a mind that's sick
we all know that's true.
Why can't you just watch the funnies
they are more your style,
If we saw just what you write
we all would run a mile.
Small of mind in need of pity
you feel sad for yourself,
Just because you cannot write
you steal words from the shelf.
