> They moan and groan, rave and rant
> and on and on they drone.

> They nitpik and poke, they prod and they hiss,
> they beat the poor topic 'til dead
> But not a word of their argument seems to make sense,
> You wonder whats wrong with their head!

> I would never do such, I'm well mannered you see,
> Discrete, cool tempered, even keeled,
> My desire is harmony, understanding and calm
> I want every breach to be healed.

> Should another be wrong, I'll point it out gently,
> a soft word turns away wrath
> But if they persist I'll try once again

> And while I'm at it I'll expound a bit
> to insure they know what I mean
> But some aren't too bright, so to get it right
> I'll repeat it scene by scene.
>
> If still they don't see the folly of their way
> I'll make another attempt

> Those others who rant, who rave and who drone,

> I know the facts, have the answers, the truth,
> Now pay attention.....let me explain.
