Analysis of Lickspttle



In today’s society,
There are son many lickspittle persons,
In government,
On the street,
In media.

It’s sad the people can’t be real,
The need to suck up,
Back stab,
Manipulate and destroy.

It’s horrible for a soul,
The twisting and turning,
The needless damage,
The impending damage.

The lickspittles of society will be haunted,
And forever be contorted.
