Simply Me

Inexpert at rhyme or singing in time I bray like a laryngitic donkey my artwork's inept I'm ham-fisted except when doodling things that are wonky Of style I'm bereft my feet are both left splayed in an opposite direction; 'tis little wonder I blindfully blunder into despair and abject dejection My mind is a bog of gunk and cheap grog my gray matter's shrinking, I fear today is a haze yesterday a maze and everything's clearly unclear My dress sense is eish and fits not my niche nor do my shorts, come to that my flip-flops are worn my t-shirts all torn one boob is fat, one is flat! Despite many a flaw I'm not an eyesore though ungainly and lacking in style with my stunning good looks I easily hooked your soon-to-be-ex with my smile

Well, a lady that knows herself and has accepted it! A great achievement to reach that level of self-knowledge and self-confidence that little matters what others think. However, beneath the concrete exterior my eye spies a...soft interior!

love this one. I had read it recently and enjoying it again . btw, do you think it would be ok to use Wounded Thunder in that native american contest? I honestly don't know how to write of things I know little of and at least I can do humor,but I know some native americans are sensitive and I don't want to offend anyone. maybe I will enter it. I have a really good serious one but it's an oldie here at Soup and probably she wants a new entry!

Your soon-to-be-ex... you're quite the devious one! I appreciate your boldness and how you don't pull any punches... but just show us the real YOU! Everything's perfectly clear that you have naught to fear... you are just simply being yourself. Even if that means you are times obscene and prank like one of Santa's bad elves.... he he he... couldn't resist.
