The Pessimist.

The Pessimist:

His peccadillo was being a perverse pessimist
Actual truth always evasive and eluding him
So full of cynicism, his thinking so clinical
Afraid of the past catching up with him

Always so skeptical of others views
Ever doubtful and never throwing caution to the wind
Experiences giving him such a Grey grim outlook
Seeing the future so dark and dismal

His advice always "you will always sink, you will not be able to swim."
Preaching and fearing the worst
Never believing there being any recourse
So negative and fully incumbent with woe
