Prankster
Prankster

For those who love a practical joke
it’s not so amusing for the bloke
who suffers the tricks of the errant prankster.
The fact is he’s a bit of a gangster
who gets his kicks from the woes of others,
humiliating being his druthers.

The laugh is much greater when karma
turns the tables on this nasty charmer.
