you must for now
admit
that your fame is
not based on
merit
it is not your
work that
is really impressive
i have read
it.
it is your large
number of friends
who keep on
flattering you
it is the money that
you spend for their drinks
and entertainment
and this is where
we differ
on the other hand
i have seen the other
it is his envy
that made him shrink
and turned him into
a shrimp.
