The Art of The Snark

There is a way...
To speak your mind...
And make a bee-line right to the heart.

It's calm and profound...
Perfectly sound...
It is called The Art of The Snark...

It's telling people the truth...
It's being aloof...
It's brilliant and carefully-planned.

It is practiced by thieves...
And comic relieves...
It is written in 'sorry' short-hand.

It's military-ease...
Abbreviated relief...
It's coded numbers and symbols galore.

It's on pyramid walls...
On gross bathroom stalls...
And takes mystery out of the gore.

What did she mean?
What did she say?
It's fast like a rapier wit.

It's giving the best...
When there is a test...
Or just when you're giving a S*&^.
