Caren Krutsinger Poet Diamante

Confidence Vs Lack Of

confidence
                                self assured, poised
                       unassuming, leading, persuasive,
                           leader, parent, loner, bully
                       bragging, disparaging, lambasting
                                begrudging, angry
                                      lack of

M. L. Kiser December 2, 2018 at 8:31 PM What contrast lies in those lines! Very well done. Caren Krutsinger December 2, 2018 at 9:56 PM Thank you. I can be both you realize, as we all can.

Rhona Mcferran November 29, 2018 at 10:24 AM I love how you contrasted the quiet/ loud types on the proper sides of this... as many seem to equate loud/brash with confidence (and it's usually a sign of insecurity). Great work! ;) Caren Krutsinger December 2, 2018 at 9:57 PM hahahahaha - I was thinking of myself, moment by moment.

Kim Rodrigues November 29, 2018 at 10:08 AM Oh, yes! You’ve aptly showed the two sides! And if the bully could only understand! See...they are on the underside, and cannot make it to the top with their caterwauling! Caren Krutsinger December 2, 2018 at 9:57 PM Caterwauling. I am going to use that word Kim. I love it!
