Howard Melworm

Howard Melworm, you tried so hard to get your start
In the literary world but you couldn't make a mark
All the people weren't prepared for what you had to say
All the people were bastards anyway!

Howard Melworm, a modern day Ibsen
Howard Melworm, so full of conviction
Howard Melworm, if you knew what you mean to me
Howard Melworm, all your blues would be history

Howard Melworm, a man with nerves of steel
Marginal relevance and reluctant sex appeal
Dedications to intellectual betters
And casual acceptance of rejection letters
Howard Melworm
