Guest poem submitted by Benjamin Paul Withy :
(Poem #1523) An Ethical Grook I see
and I hear
and I speak no evil;
I carry
no malice
within my breast;
yet quite without
wishing
a man to the Devil
one may be
permitted
to hope for the best.

This only sort of fits "the poet cranky" theme. While I'm sure this was written in jest, as so many of Hein's poems are, I feel it is a lovely turn of phrase which most people can appreciate the sentiment behind. I think I've already exceeded the length of the poem with my comment so I'll stop here.
