RUDE

by Elisabeth Barstowe — Read all 441 poems by Elisabeth Barstowe

Wednesday, June 2, 2010

Unwanted, unmasked opinion,
soft hearted kindness chastise.
Put forth in barking manner,
loud mouth foul and bitter tasting.

Envy the green eyed monster at play
holding horses frothing mouths at bay.
One jack and an ace up the sleeve
aim to shoot at latest pet peeve.

Excuse me sir may I...
Weekness all hail as battle cry,
do or die, eat or be eaten,
fine dine on fear of being beaten.

You have no shame,
no apology, no sympathy,
just cruelty and lack of empathy.
According to me,
that is plain RUDE DUDE.

Elisabeth, it is very unfortunate that we actually encounter these people daily -- many are high profile types we see in the news daily -- may peace and love be always with you my friend -- Jon Michael

Whew! Read three times and got a load off my chest, too, Elisabeth. Rude awakening, too :o)
