The Selfie Fool

Walking along the busy street the crowds mingle so fully free attention grabbers out in force camera's at the ready all to see Nowadays mobile phones do everything even taken a picture is all the rage clickety click non stop all the time our grandparents would think it strange But now there's new modern trend take a picture of yourself, you mean me! hold it at your front turn it around press it with finger it's you no fee! This smacks of arrogance so full little old me I really love so much such foolishness filling one's self no humility there not even a touch Do these selfies know they've one life only one to live here and then they die next comes divine and holy judgement their pics then will perish where they lie!
