Pathetic

A summer cold
Hay-fever
And strained muscles
From attempts at being athletic
Means I'll stay in bed all day
Feeling pathetic

Bobby was called an idiot
Bobby was called pathetic
Till one day had a revelation
He would master gibberish
Now appears on daytime television

‘I know it seems pathetic, but I really haven’t the stomach for these games anymore’ he admitted ‘I don’t have the same unswerving righteousness that I had as a younger man’. She turned away; this flakiness was new. #130story

The bot stood on the burning deck,
Its diodes all lit red,
The flame around its burning neck,
Would soon engulf its head

My Granny told me
Let no one
Put you down
They're pathetic
There is no ifs or buts
Show suitable disdain
But failing that
Kick them in the nuts

John didn’t fancy work today
So he made a pathetic excuse
Dear sir, I can’t get my head in gear
I think it’s lack of use!
