Poem Artwork


I know someone who talks constantly but
Never says anything no matter what
Except to prove himself a narcissist
As trying not to listen I resist

But the noise of him gets on my nerves so
When he is talking I only would go
As far as I can from this lonely man
Who drives everyone else away this way

And he never lets anyone else say
Anything else not that one could or would
Because no one would want to make it last
Longer but wait until his storm has passed

At least his self-pity could be witty
But it is nothing but torture to be
In his narcissistic propinquity
An empty brain in pain is not pretty

Everyone wishes that he understood
He will be a bore until he cares more
But I am not waiting not until then
Avoiding him successfully again

I know someone who talks constantly but
How I wish now that somehow I did not

I'm with you on this one. Especially on the phone. I have called up someone to tell them something, only to find that, after 15 minutes, I was still unable to get a single word in edge ways.

LOL!!! I'm not sure who you mean in this poem; but we all have our favorite poets, and then the unfavorite poets here in AD as well. We just have to choose those ones that we like to read and comment.
