Member Poem

He doesn't care and doesn't understand
why others do.  They wince to see his face,
exposed in ways he surely never planned.
 
Entitlement's his watchword hand in hand
with never getting caught in life's embrace.
He doesn't care and doesn't understand
 
the flow of conversation, how to land
a point.  He shoves it awkward into place,
exposed in ways he surely never planned.
 
He shakes his gory locks despite the grand
or simple setting, poisons every space:
he doesn't care and doesn't understand.
 
A source of dread, he lets his groans expand,
pursuing only discord's raucous chase,
exposed in ways he surely never planned.
 
Intent on flames that he alone has fanned,
at last he burns away his final trace.
He doesn't care and doesn't understand,
exposed in ways he surely never planned.
