That Crown Makes You Look Fat

Are you centripetal.
do you radiate with beams?
At least you seem to think so.
Maybe it's all in your dreams?

How completely audacious of you.
Presumptuous to the highest degree.
How supercilious those things you do.
should I bow on bended knee?

Sorry...am I being cheeky and bold?
With all due respect of course.
Now I see why stones are so cold.
I've never seen one show a sign of remorse.

If it weren't sad it would be outrageous.
But now on second thought....
To what means is this advantageous?
Should we roll out the carpet with laud?

Come here let me stroke it.
your ego of course.
I shall venerate and worship.
Maybe extol you with scorn?

Do you have trouble fitting through doors?
Should I get the vaseline?
Self-admiration flows through your pores.
did I step on your hypocrisy?

Look in the mirror what do you see?
Did i hear you say perfection?
You are perfunctory's epitome.
do you receive ego injections?

If this is hard to injest,
just flip it around.
Chew up your words and digest.
In your syllables drown.

Does it taste good eating those vowels?
How about I get you some phonics?
an appetizer of consonant sounds.
Spare me your histrionics.
