tried 

antidepressants.  

his ex-father-in-law said 

“you gotta get on 

with life, mate”.  

the lost cause 

is a liar and a bastard

and a cheater.

isn’t a naturally happy person – he’s a barrage 

of ails and laments.

he’s not a very nice man 

to be  

around.  

that’s just the way he is.
