Some In Life

This is not about any on poetrypoem
or any person in particular ..
Just life ..

We have all come across them
They have nothing else to do-
It's in their breeding some feel
It is their whole life it is true-
A certain class of living soul
That so resembles a clinging vine-
And never gives of healthy fruit
Over anything it will climb-
It can be found just anywhere
To know of it is a must for sure-
So you can recognize it early
Before it gets a firm foot in your door-
It is against the law to spray them
But where there's a will there's a way-
To spot them way before they know
That you have them pegged early in the day-
The class of which I speak of
Belongs to a certain kind of soul-
That feeds on intimidating others
And gossiping from days of old-
They feel that what is theirs is theirs
And whats yours is theirs as well-
If they do not know they'll make it up
And cannot simply wait to tell-
They have a thing against any being happy
And cannot wait to destroy same-
It's a thing that keeps them living
As if to them in life a compulsive game-
They are usually very careful to make sure
They are one step this side of breaking the law-
A very fine line they love to walk in life
But worse luck they'll be around for ever more-
The thing is to recognize them in life
And have one eye on guard for same-
Often they approach as ever wonderful
But have the quality of acid rain-
As if sugar coated arsenic are they
And believe me they do exist in life-
They get their thrills from causing trouble
And bringing to good souls lots of strife-
