A-Z sketches in verse: Making Much



Max, of himself he maketh much –
Holds conversations in his clutch.
As those around are too polite
To call him out, no end’s in sight.

He pours his overflowing cup,
Just like a choir, warming up.
It’s “La-la-la” and “Me-me-me.”
He sings his solo, though off-key.

And to ourselves, we hope alike
That laryngitis him should strike.
(Or someone has to swipe his mic.)
