Negative Neil
Negativity
It seemed to follow him
in his every thought
In silent ways
Offensive ways
Pessimistic words
he spoke
That critised his family his friends
Acquaintances
People he had not yet met
His dog copped it
without doing anything
He loved sport but the teams
he supported were hopeless
He lived in suburb
that had little future
As were his future
employment prospects
Nothing he could think of
had any redeeming features
Except for……no
He would have to
it some more thought
