A Man Upset Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

A man upset

The world is getting thin-skinned
chief for a state department, a puffed-up one at that
was shouted at.
He cried and resigned.
Now he is suing the one that shouted at him, well
He will perhaps win the upper classes often do.
This proud man feels hurt and can't sleep which
Is strange since he has sent many to their grave
Implementing policies that hurt many people.

He can dish it out, but can't take being criticised
So, let him go with his big pension and tend the roses.
