Crab Face Chocolate Eater

I met a villain once on the golf course of life.  He was a special fellow and worked for the aerospace industry.  I must say I can not forget that he was eating chocolate all day long and that his face was actually appearing like that of a crab with the pincers and the beady little eyes and maybe even some pointed edges.  I thought he was a bright star at one time, but the more I think about his aptitude and calibre, I realize he is really a mighty worker for the cause of self importance and eager deadly spending of turtle bait on the golf course.  What does it mean to spend "turtle bait"?  That's when you wake up and put on your cap and gown and realize that your good nature is not what got you ahead in life.  You realize that its your hostility and your cannon rhyming of words to sing to the lyrics of Batman and Beyond.   That's what really got you ahead.
So if you meet this villain of the golf course, just nod and say hello.  He probably wont remember you much anyhow, but that said, hes worth the respect of the cinema and the bookstore of your brain and the garden of your esteem to get to know and befriend.  Thanks to you, Crab Face, I now can never sit down again in an audience of blameless persons and not feel that I am to blame for the terrors of the night.  Thanks so much.  I sleep well but that said, what was the goal of being on the golf course anyhow?  Were you there to enjoy the activity and day or were you there just to chop at the turf with your chip shot of success and plenitude.  I did not mind that you made a chip shot onto the green while I was standing by the flag, but I did mind that you did not yell "fore".
