Professional Jealousy - A Karla-ku!

Inspired to repost after Karla's "Secret Agenda" write last night! Talk about all being part of the great Cosmic Giggle! :)) This is one I have lifted straight out of my backlist from April last year... guess some things never change, but heartening to know, at least, that even the Great and the Good suffer the same anxieties sometimes - local legend Van Morrison sings about this one. Thanks, Karla - again! LOL Kate xx


PROFESSIONAL JEALOUSY


Peel me your eyeballs,
your brains as yoghurt breakfast.
Feed me your essence!

Wear you like a coat,
I want to get inside you -
your blood in my veins.

I covet your mind -
how you interpret the world,
seeing things you see.

What, then, makes you tick?
Jealous of the air you breathe
- I want to be YOU!

Yes, yes. I do enjoy being me. Many think like you, hence my book. You can buy my book on how to be just like me. Do hope the veins are not varicose.
