Array ( [sid] => 1101 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => His Vanity's Amazing... [time] => 2002-07-25 11:09:18 [hometext] => This is about someone i "encountered" the other day...it takes all sorts...bless him... [bodytext] => He watched himself ...as he passed on by
a real quick glance...devilishly sly
adjusted collar...brushed his shirt
wiped away a spot of dirt
his vanity's amazing...
brushed back hair, not out of place
over gelled, just past his face
his plastic tan, was a big disgrace
his vanity's amazing...
gold watch on a fake gold chain
a massive ego from a tiny brain
he just aint Able...nor even kane
his vanity's amazing...
cowboy boots...with a silver toe
with heels that high
he's got vertigo
after shave
that leaves an after glow
his vanity's amazing...
slim cigars to look so cool
a silver lighter
to light the fool
how the hell...did he get through school
his vanity's amazing...

Great poem! I agree with that other person... "a massive ego from a tiny brain" is the best line!

Must have been a weird school indeed to have allowed this character to survive!! I enjoyed this Mark.
