Peacocking
Peacocking
(Attracting attention)
Written: by Miracle Man

Some like to spend time at the mall “peacocking”,
And dressed outlandishly believe they’re show stopping.
Intent is not usually the opposite sex to ensnare,
But getting their high from garnering others stare;
Many have no qualms about what they display,
They go all out to capture the eyes of their prey.
Appearance don’t divulge whether they’re doughty,
Nor does it reveal that their spirit is haughty. *
* Proverbs 16:18 KJV
“Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall”
