PeeWee Addresses His Bully
by jim vecchio

To flee or not to flee; that is the question
Whether ‘tis nobler in the nose to suffer
The slings and slaps of an outrageous bully
Or take arms and see much troubles
And by opposing, offend them. To die-to be slapped
No more and by a slap to say we end
The nose-bleeds and the thousand natural shocks
That my flesh is heir to: ‘tis a culmination
Devoutly to be wished; Wise guy, to slip,
Perchance to cream you-A Black Eye, there’s something to rub!
For in that slip, death may surely come
And when I’ve shuffled off this mortal coil
I must have peace, not the disrespect
That makes calamity of my bullied life
For I, who bear your whips and scorns,
My oppressor’s wrongs, with proud humility,
Bear the insolence of your offence, and my spurns
This patient merits not of your unworthy pokes
-Enterprises of great strength and movement
With no regard will turn awry
And lose fame for your actions
