Analysis of Vincent Vile
My name is Vincent Vile
I offer misery by the mile
I am a fisherman
Casting my line
To feed amongst you
Be careful not to fall for my bait
It may just change your fate
Where you land upon my plate
To be gutted and scaled
A mistake
That will let you know you failed
Allow me to dine upon your flesh
Sniff your entrails
To know your fresh
I have no love for you
Other than your place in my stew
Soften your bones
No need to chew
Your terror is tasty
Your meat succulent
I feast, I don’t relent
Open your gills
Let me have my fill
They say
Teach a man to fish and feed him for a lifetime
The pond is full of fools
Clueless, fat, delicious schools
Waiting to be baited, berated and plated
Plucked, sucked and fucked
Poked, smoked, and stoked
Over the coals on my skewer
Retrieved from the human sewer
It’s the sustenance
That allows me to endure
I am Vincent Vile
I offer misery by the mile
It is my pleasure to defile
And offer a sinister smile
As I fill my bucket with a pile
Of the baited, berated and soon to be plated
As I once stated
My methods are quite dated
But you fall for the same old trick
Sniff the bait and take a lick
Close your eyes
I’ll make this quick
There is no good end to this tale
Just the laughable end
Of the human fail
Blissfully naïve
Eager to receive
Easy to deceive
Wishing for a reprieve
For wanting to believe
The line I cast
Will offer salvation at last
I am Vincent Vile
I offer misery by the mile
I have discounts
On deceit and guile
Two for one
Come have some fun
Flop in my bucket
Under the sun
Teach a man to fish and feed him for a lifetime
The line I cast
Is a worthless mast
To cling to
Don’t take the bait mate
It will change your fate
And hasten your date
To be gutted on my plate
But if you insist
I wont resist
I will just subsist on your sacrifice
And park you next to the rice
Pardon me if I don’t offer a slice
I’m hungry and never claimed to be nice
I am Vincent Vile
I offer misery by the mile
Discounts on deceit and guile
With baited hook and a smile
I cast my line
Ready to defile
The lesson here is clear
Master the bait of your fate
