a different kind of looly

One done at last weekend's watercolor workshop by Emte.
Ain't no easy thang when you don't have his hundreds-of-years experience.

lovely looly

looly is a big strong bully,
a bully with a talent for being rackety.
cos she got heaps of money,
and a powerful family.

looly is most of the time angry,
but she likes to believe she's lovely.
cos all the cash-throwing charity,
makes it okay for her to be bitchy.

looly's friends think she's just being funny,
they think it's okay, she's just being adorably looly.
so it's no biggie if she gets tremendously cocky,
it's everyone's job to understand that she is simply dicey.

if this poem ever gets caught by looly,
yours truly will be terminated prudently.
cos looly believes she is lovely really,
from all the charity and money and powerful family.
