Petty Little Dictator
You held your family down with your physical presence,
humungous ego ,and pocket size intellect
you were as aggressive as a pit bull
You thought you were so smart
the way you swaggered and intimidated us
but we were just kids
Now we are all fully grown, we are strong
we contain the might to smite you down where you stand
we can slay you and cut down to size, slice you from side to side
thrash, mash , and bash you with our verbal cut and thrust
You are the tiny insignificant , scab that had to be picked
you're the fleas on my dog, you're the irritating tick
you're the monster in my closet, that had to be slain
Life is a great leveler, and what goes around comes around
Karma is my last word
