Some queue and some do not,
some push in pushing past
the ones that do queue

I wait my turn
because in a polite society
It's polite to do so
even so
some still push in,

but it's considered antique
to give up your seat
to the elderly and
I find that to be
a scandalous
state of affairs.

I think it's incestuous
the way that they get
to us,
bad manners
inbreeding?
they need to be seen to.


And while they're
feeding you the line,
that
gives me the time
to plot their demise.

at the end of the queue
a demolition crew
awaits,
they're a battering ram
to smash every man
that ever pushed past me
or gate crashed
a party
I'm heartily in favour
of that.
