In a Swiftean mood today: and here is the result. Dedicated to the Unknown Plagiarist.
“To steal a thought is no great sin.
Research is just a word.
Geez, why put a reference in?
Your diligence is absurd!
In our modern, sharing world
An author’s rights are void.
Besides, what private rights once were
The internet’s destroyed.”
Embrace your shallowness, then, friend,
And paint your ignorance bliss.
Copy-pasted laurels wilt
On brains that thrive on piss.
