"Too stupid to live" are words I oft did hear Whilst yet a babe at Mother's knee. But contrary to the things you may hear, Mama weren't refer'n to me. That proverbial phrase she did employ As an eloquently concise critique Of the minds of those whose wild exploits Revealed ignorance beyond belief. And those she thus described are well-known, But I'll not be a name-namer. For, if I did, this would be much less a poem And much more of a legal disclaimer. For the times have changed since our phrase was coined, And now we must be correct politically. So let us say "negatively brilliant to the point Of biological non-viability". (Fox-like minds will deem career-Worthy, Those last two cleverly clever lines. But of such humor we've more than we're deserving, And even mere babes are heard to opine: "That Git'er man is gettin' on my nerbses.")
