Dark Side of Mocking

So you think yourself funny by taking the pi$$ By being disrespectful with malicious dis Trying to be clever with sarcasm wit Thinking yourself; a self-righteous big hit. Venomous words, cruel snide remarks Gathered together, like circling sharks Point scoring never brings any peace Dark side of mocking; hate does increase. You may seem to others sweet as a mouse Get yourself help, then sort your own house Your not worth my time, your words won't displace I'll be saying no more, except your a disgrace. 17.11.21

Hello Emilia ... just recently I was with someone who thought his wit was A-class. He was the only one who believed that - thanks Emilia - Lindsay

WOW!!! What a write. Words do hurt and cannot be taken back. One can only say, "sorry." I have this right now. Someone needs to say sorry but they will not. That is OK. It is part of life. I miss your writes. I hope you will write again soon. Have a Blessed Christmas and 2022.......................
