Not Malice Poem by Randy McClave

I say this not with any hate or malice
But, I dislike anyone who lives in a mansion or a palace
I despise anyone with that type of sheltered life
Where they don't have to work, or live with hardship or strife,
And if there is never any dirt underneath a single fingernail
I wish and pray for them all to go straight to hell,
A person like that lives off of someone else's hard work and sweat
And I tell you that with the truth and also with sad regret,
In their homes of the wealthy they too have insects and rats
Which are probably fed better than my own dog and cats
Their daughters and sons can grow up to be a princess or a prince
But, they cannot be taught the use of their own common sense,
And if they ever look down upon me with their arrogant gall
I will push them, and then I will trip them, until they all fall
And if they ever think they are better than me because of their class;
I will show then my working boot, and then kick them in the ass.
