Grimbeau

It came in fourth

The horse you said

Would win the race

There were three other ones in front

Of the horse you put your last sou

On while you snored and snored and snored…

Age: old. Status: inconsiderable

Lump of matter, more fat than water

Surplus to requirements

Inbuilt obsolescent

Thumb-sucker; bad attitude

One of nature’s malconcontents

Think: Brando in ‘The Wild One’

On a white pogo stick.

I know the type:

Mass murderer

Who never killed

Anything in his eventless life

Never harmed a fly on purpose ‘cept

When he made you cry on purpose.
