Jan Allison Poet Acrostic

Notes About The Poem

Obnoxious Woman

Openly opinionated 
Blunt with few social skills
Nobody likes a know it all
Overbearing and rude 
Xanthippe – this speaks for itself!
Ignorant of the feelings of others
Often wrong but you will never admit it
Unwilling to listen to advice
So full of your own importance

Why do you treat people so badly?
Other people’s opinions matter
Maybe you should take a good look at yourself
All people deserve to be treated with respect
NEVER cross my path again

James Fraser July 25, 2015 at 1:21 PM I love these hard hitting writes. Not being here as much as I'd like to be, I'm missing out :( but does my instinct tell me? All the same, nice writing irrespective of the reason for the write. Hugs always Jan :)xx 2 weeks until my arms get sore flying to happiness, James xxx Jan Allison July 25, 2015 at 1:35 PM aww James - seems we are both into the powerful hard hitting writes at the moment - i started this before my muse went on a 2 week holiday - i never ditch my initial ideas - keep them in a pending pile lol. I bet you can't wait - not flapping those wings early my friend lol:-) hugs Jan xx
