Devil Boss Little

This poem is about a criminal(Devil Boss Little) who was a great boss but not a leader... he made all the wrong choices.. did 'nt realise the worth of life until it was too late... we all have something t learn from this..(everything in the poem is made up and is not real in any way)-annette

Mr. Boss was firm and strong,
According to him, he did nothing wrong,
He shot some men and stabbed the rest,
Drank the night at his best,
All for fame, power and pelf,
All for money,money and self.
He was the boss of him, you and me,
But it was too late for him to see
That cops were friends of the society.
Well all is lost, even his wife,What 's the use of living a life?
They say he is promised the electric chair,
And he wonders if life was ever fair..
Where he had made the first flaw,
The first time he broke the law.
His soul never did find peace..
But victims of his crime were at last at ease.
He never was a leader, always a boss.
He made the wrong choices and all for loss.
So are you a leader or a boss?
Will you wither with time or gather like moss?
Is 'nt life for living and not for death?
For leading others out of the net?
So choose the right thing to do..
And find the right leader in you..

Why do u call this, "Devil....."
Boss is meant to be a dwarf?

there's this book by D.B.C. Pierre that's titled Vernon God Little or something like that.. i remember reading that on the newspaper. He either won the booker prize or was nominated for it. Kinda liked the title, so i thought i'll title my poem on similar lines! ha ha :) And the "little" is not aimed at it being a dwarf..more like a superficial name for the horrid guy i portray in the poem. Always be a leader not a boss.Earns you more interest.

exactly. same holds for music also. After all the good music that we've heard, i've always wondered how they come up with better stuff each time! A.R. Rahman is amazing! brilliant
