a Poem for Sunday Muse -- I Don't Wish This on You

 

The Poor Loser 

Better to butt one's head against the wall 
than having a tizzy 'bout a bad call 
After the tizzy you'll be a "Loser" 
and carry that name of defeat for life 

Butting one's head will leave a big headache 
but that is why aspirin and Tylenol 
every day are sold.  Having your hissy 
often leads to the hoosegow or much worse 

Either way your friends will be laughing and 
having a jolly time at your expense 
You'll never live down your mistake or your 
telling name, "Loser, Loser--did it wrong" 

So why don't you take it like a big "boy" 
and cry up your sleeve when you are alone

  3. Thank you very much for visiting1 of my websites and also these words and this poem. I translated it with https://www.deepl.com/ and also read the comments of others. And President Trump is not good for the people in your country. He thinks only of himself. And now he's definitely banging his head and I hope very hard every day because he keeps trying to manipulate other people but he also has to learn ow thathe with money can't buy not everything. And I really hope that later on he will be punished for what he has done.

  4. Yes being a poor loser makes one an even bigger loser. Wise words here Jim!

  5. If you can't handle the results, maybe it was the wrong game for you.

  6. I have never seen such a display of toxic behaviour. His enablers have a lot to answer for. He is deranged, but they allow it. It boggles the mind, and does so much damage. Joe Biden has a hard job ahead. His CALMNESS is so welcome! Nice to read you, Jim. I have been distracted, am not writing at the moment, but enjoy reading.
