Can'T Take Much Mo

I could pound her head against a brick wall or find some modicum of logic to install but those would probably do no good at all for she is filled with bitter anger and gall Do these words portray someone you know If I could change her attitude, I'd make it so the world would have a much brighter glow hold me back cuz I can't take much mo! I've seen a few others who tried enlightening but her mind is closed, her heart tightening her audacity flashes like forked lightning she's so churlish and stubborn, it's frightening

Love this sassy yet gritty honest poem, Lin. I love the vibe of the down-to-earth lingo. It's a classic ... a 7+ and a fave. Poetry on the cool side. Hot words dipped in the pool of truth-don't-lie. 100 degrees burn notice. Bulls-eye poetry, your pointed pen don't miss. This poem rocks! Love and hugs, dear.

Love this poem. I think those are the only people I know. I am constantly placating those around me. People are more important than opinions so as long as it isn't against my core values I remain silent or at least co-operative. Also love your ease with the language and the melodic flow of your write. Impressive to say the least. Lots Of Love, armand.

It is a trait of a silent ego as well...I've heard rumors

aha, Tim. It could apply to anyone with an ego...silent or outspoken. Thanks for the input.

You'd better think that one over again. lol No human is purfact, perfect, or otherwise completely open minded, but for goodness sakes...there must be a limit to what someone can take with an ego that size. I'll just iggy from now on. Thanks for your input, Arthur.

I know a few people like this, male and female. Stubborn and closed minded. You have expressed your angst well my friend.

I suppose I should just shake the dust from my feet and walk away. I think I will. Thanks for your compliment, Chris.

Gosh she sounds like a stubborn mule Lin! Unfortunately some folks just can't accept that other people have an opinion and they may not always be right in their own:-(hugs Jan xx

More's the pity for those like her. Sympathy is hard to give, but I'm to believe there's hope for everyone.
