I’m a Neanderthal man, <br />And this is my make-believe world, <br />I color people as well as I can; <br />My mental state lies unfurled. <br /> <br />I used to glide, but now I hoyte <br />I watch greenhorns – the imbeciles! <br />I mince no words, I’m acock! <br />I have many acolytes. <br /> <br />I’m indestructible; I’ve passed extreme unction; <br />I’ve laid misery at many a door, <br />I dismiss people with no compunctions, <br />Watch this space for more! <br /> <br />I cook tales; I’m a kook also; <br />I create hungamas wherever I go. <br />I command from heights as only I can, <br />I puff with pride, I’m happy, I am. <br /> <br />I communicate with trademark terseness, <br />I view my world in its colored profusion; <br />My style is met by much adverseness, <br />I’m quite happy with my delusion! <br /> <br />The Neanderthal in me seeks more joy; <br />I revel in others’ masochism; <br />All know that I’m not coy, <br />about my bent for hedonism! <br /> <br />I love watching people fly out of control; <br />I philosophize on their transparency; <br />And now the years have taken its toll <br />on my virile potency. <br /> <br />I rage, I thunder, I claim attention; <br />I am as right as right should be; <br />All opposing views to mine need divine intervention, <br />from who else? Why, from me! <br /> <br />Copyright © SC <br />22nd March 2008 <br />Mumbai<br /><br />Subroto Chatterjee<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/daft-dodger/
