LIFE ADVICE
As an intellectual snob
who didn't long keep a steady job
I've tried always to speak true
but retired at sixty two.
And as you can see--
as far leaving an impressive biography--
that hasn't worked too well for me,
Perhaps in our Democracy
it's better to master hypocrisy
and add it to to one's armamentarium:
Become a secretly meat eating vegetarian
or else philandering money grubber
posing as a steadfast lover
and further ornament one's life
with a not too ugly but wealthy wife,
to help pay for children's tuition--
In short: become a successful politician.
Then, after death, people about you may gush more---
Your stony face even carved into Mount Rushmore?
