My Super Ego Show

Come stroke my super ego
Please, come sit awhile and stay
I'll play my poetic show
And, we'll slowly drift away.

Come put a coin in my purse
And then I'll dance for you
A lovely ballet of verse
In a pair of rhyming shoes.

Come lend me your ears and time
And I'll take you far away
To lands made of verse and rhyme
In shades of golden yesterdays.

Come catch it as I throw it
A fresh ember of a dream
Come listen to a poet
And his witty rhyming schemes.

Come stroke my super ego
And you'll sure be glad you did
This is the 'Tim Dandy Show'
And today I feel splendid!


                         Timothy I. Brumley

Hey, this is sure cute. Was looking for something of yours I had not read yet, and here it is! I do think most poets, good or bad, have quite the egos. Glad you are one that really can deliver! Andrea

Excellent, I really enjoy reading your poems, "Come listen to a poet" this line alone is enough to write books from.

You maka me laugh, Tim! A "Jim Dandy" perspective on people with giant egos. Love, Carolyn
