You "Dropped the Pilot"—with that youthful confidence that some adore—

The "whirligig of time" has turned; the "Pilot" drops the "Commodore."

A fico for Imperial "Pots," and their young princely progenies.

Belated condescension won't conciliate Diogenes.

Cynic and Conqueror exchange compliments Ciceronian,

But—there's a sting in some smooth words, for a mouthing Macedonian.

Mine are not sanitary "tubs," the Varzin, or the other one

At Friedrichsruh, you hint. Oh get away, and do not bother one!

I've got a "nervous system" now, and noisy, young, despotical,

"Shock-headed Peters" worry one, when aged and neurotical.
