No Stage For This Sage

A sage embarasses his friend
  drains the blood from his face

prefaces a bit of his friend's earthly end
  in Perpetuity the stain hath no place

Like the poem. Have been wacked over the head in open post by same poet more than once. Every time I come here since then...it gives me the creeps. I say Psalms for Him. That’s all I can do. Humility is not his Trump card. Nor is he the only one prancing about. The vast majority here are understanding and kind. So goes the world. Pangagiota

Enough already, Pangi. I have never intentionally hurt another person in my entire life! Whatever it was that I wrote to you was meant only with kindness. I have written thousands of comments, and I think most everyone will agree that I am only kind, thoughtful, and helpful. Since you won't allow me to comment directly to you, this is my only resort. I read every one of your poems, and I am just tired of your "wacking" me over the head!!! Enough, please!

Hey, Panagiota, thank you so much. Here's to less whacking and more clapping! Cheers, gw
