In the News-Bullies


Bully Beware!

Some will sneer like Fu Man Chu
and try to fake the role.
Others will demand their due
with warlike rigmarole.

Little ploys like snarl and bellow
will work if you’re a bear
but if it’s not within the marrow 
impostors should beware.

For those who find you tiresome
may sense your pantomime
and guises can be burdensome
once you’re past your prime.

Far better that you check your goal
and find a better course.
For tyrants who have played this role
oft end with dire remorse.
