Notes About The Poem

*Someone one of late said that the way of a kind poet with integrity is one with tender and gentle poetry.  I say if they are a hater of others, then...they are a tender genteel hater!  LOL. Do we all have a little narci in us? That is the question.  :)

Too Old To Be A Narci!

When beauty’s gone bye bye and slack flesh becks Jowls, crow’s feet, graveled voice and turkey necks Too old to be a narcissist what’s left is a pacifist *Tender genteel haters do not make good peaceniks!

Haha, this had me grinning! So witty and true — aging with attitude and a sense of humor is a win. Loved the 'genteel haters' line!"

Rowena, it delights me to see you laughing! Y e s! Exactly, if we can't laugh at ourselves we're in a dire condition, Ty, dear poetess.

Interesting read! "turkey necks" I liked it. However, not against anyone.

It's beyond hilarious what some will put out as poetry. Makes one wonder if they ever look in the mirror. Ooh, Anayalation. Have you used that term before? That's gotta have its own poem one day

You know, Tommy, It's the narcissist in them thinking anything goes! *Someone of late said that the way of a kind poet with integrity is one with tender and gentile poetry. I say if they are a hater of others, then...they are a tender genteel hater! LOL. Do we all have a little narci in us? That is the question. __Anaya
