Ecohippie (Sonnet) by ?-Dave_Mysterious-?

Uninformed yet opinionated, Arrogant and pious, These are things I'll never be, Nor stubborn or self righteous. Stop going out and getting drunk, Stop watching your TV, Stop driving 'round in your fast car, You fascists should be more like me. 'Cause I know how to run the world, (I read a book about Karl Marx,) There's not a lot that I don't know, The sun it shines out of my arse. Ten pounds can feed a thousand orphans, But I went one better than that, I spent three grand to fly to peru, And live in a ramshackle shack. And on my gap year to Mozambique, I ate raw sheep's eyes and locusts, I always dine on authentic cuisine, Not the shit that they sell to the tourists. I'm artistic, creative and soulful, I'm sharp and so very cool, I curse my parents for sending me, To a respectable school.

Nice!

Flows really well, is entertaining - the timing of the ending is perfect.

a small nit: dumpt the "that" after "shit" and the "the" after "to" as in "Not the shit they sell to tourists."
