How embarrassing it is
To see someone fawning on another,
Being so gnathonic and sycophantic always
To the rich and mighty!
I'm truly blithesome,
There have been a lot of greatly, successful people
Who have been very kind to me
Making nobody me feel like somebody.
My only regret is that
I haven’t been able to ever reciprocate their kindnesses,
But have always thought of them fondly
Without having to be toady at all.
