SELF-PROMOTION

Now that there’s no-one left to praise me,

And me being slightly crazy,

Rather than staying low and humble

I took upon myself the burden

Of speaking up and standing tall:

It is myself I must extol.

DEMAGOGUE

A model of deportment

Turns everybody mordant.

Bombastic phrases

All but drive you crazy.

Words with no content, only style,

Are condemned to exile.
