Gadfly Poem by Jim Norausky

Gadfly

Rating: 3.4


One in every crowd strategically lurking

challenging authorities quizzicality

who shuffle in chairs uncomfortably

hearing analysis delivered so abily

like boulders falling in an avalanche

one to hit culpable nerves by chance

in morning editorial features highlight

to this concerned person's absolute delight

like an annoying horsefly on the rear

perhaps leading to headline's smear.
