O but how tepidly tired and dour, How furiously, phallically fetid its flower. Monotonously, mirthlessly humming along, His listless life like a moribund song, Sodden with pitifully petulant skulking, Not deigning to die, but dreams of their sulking Pervaded his psyche as fifty-five fleas Formicate wildly, stinging suicide-bees. Three years of contented, ire-inducing idleness, Vacuous days lacking life’s latent vitalness. Entitlement, cowardice, perhaps the antithesis Is he of a man. Singed with syphilis, ****** from sentiment, his is the brain Of one who breathes indignant disdain For all those who threaten his thinly-veiled comfort. The thespian of truth, he’d play the faux jumper.

The Faux Jumper v1
O but how tepidly tired and dour, How furiously, phallically fetid its flower. Monotonously, mirthlessly humming along, His listless life like a moribund song, Sodden with pitifully petulant skulking, Not deigning to die, but dreams of their sulking Pervaded his psyche as fifty-five fleas Formicate wildly, stinging suicide-bees. Three years of contented, ire-inducing idleness, Vacuous days lacking life’s latent vitalness. Entitlement, cowardice, perhaps the antithesis Is he of a man. Singed with syphilis, ****** from sentiment, his is the brain Of one who breathes indignant disdain For all those who threaten his thinly-veiled comfort. The thespian of truth, he’d play the faux jumper.
I hate this version but figured I'd share so that someone might see where v2 came from.
