PARTY CRASHES

They’ll join thee with a passion, so they will,
together mingle where the broth is made,
unto themselves seeking to fulfil,
what in their established hosts they degrade.
Selective conversations will suffice,
in order to disturb the inner bond,
and some who are considered very nice,
from their isolation will abscond.
Fair be it that time will have its way,
and cheese will always attract the hungry mouse,
tis useful that the place is cleared away,
to allow the building of another house.
Some, like me, have no war to fight,
tis better just to fade away from sight.
