I know not a 'bad' word,
Only uncouth ones.
Some ideas are bad,
As are most of my rhymes.
But some poets apparently think,
To be witty,
They have to use those words
All of the time.

If that's what I must do
For peer recognition,
Or for respect
from the powers that be,
Then all I can tell them is,
"Kiss my PATOOTIE!"
Or whatever else suits them
Down near my knees.

So use any word
That captures the feeling.
Use 'gob-shite' or 'ass-hole'
If you think that you ought to.
Masterbate freely
While scribing your curses,
But sometimes, methinks,
It's funnier - not to.
