Arrogant Crone

I can read your mind she says
she is a crone, old and wizened
Arrogant and haughty, aloof, opinionated
But not magical or empathetic
She is not my idea of goodness
I paste a frozen smile on my face
which she is not wise enough to read or understand
and go another direction

So, she is not as wise as she thinks she is...or she would have your number, Caren. Just ignor such an old bitch! Be yourself, be real, and be loved...unlike her.
