Best Selfie Poems

You call me insensitive,
But I don't believe that's true;
Because, you see,
It's all about me.
It's not about you.

You say your opinion doesn’t matter,
That I’ve no respect for your point of view;
But I do if we agree,
Because it’s all about me.
It’s not about you.

You say I’ve no...

Please do not touch

Just read the signs dotted around the gallery display
So you take a selfie ...
What harm can it do?

Your camera shutter
clicks 
clicks 
clicks
as you take selfish selfie pics

Teetering on your high heels
you topple backwards like a destructive domino

You best check your arrogance 
there is a difference between narcissism and confidence
If you don’t know the distinction my dear, it’s not your competence 
It’s this damn social media filled nation- 
Shoving it into your face, to the point of suffocation

Find validation and victory in...

Let your gaze be turned upon my fair and silken skin
Look into my wandering eyes that flatter simple men
See my lips are pouty smeared with lipstick and deceit
Let me know how beautiful I look to feed conceit
Oh God! I need attention, and I need it...

Tell me what it is  
about people that makes them
take one more selfie....

No Selfie Dear…an Elfie
	
Students in Thailand stood in front,
They clicked, clicked and clicked many a selfie;
Standing behind, the elephant posed,
Posed and posed silently for many a selfie.
They tired him and his stretched trunk
Got no fruits or eatables; they were for only selfie.
The big friend’s hungry...

Texting Selfie Sonnet

Quiet girl in text heaven, knows what to do, it’s true
As long as dainty fingers dance along the keys
Loves advances will be locked, like a snap shot for you
Camera ready phone so picture perfect, in steady peace

Certain is the depth of her wanton...

The Funeral Selfie

Lace ones shoes and iron ones clothes
and take a Selfie in sullen pose

Spray the air with floral scent
and let the world outside relent

For if this day is what is meant
On which to place this family spent

Then God be all
And God be few

There is...

They take their picture in a car, on a plane, and by the pool,
Mowing the lawn, doing the dishes, and even at school.
But the strangest one by far that I have seen,
Was at a local funeral home before it convened.

Some selfies look beautiful, with no...

For gift she thought to take a pic
and send it to her boyfriend Vic,
so into bubble bath she slid
naughty parts were carefully hid;
draped her towel side to side,
so her Dad would tan no hide,
used a phone and flashed a grin,
sure that smile on face would...

On this great patch
unfading black race stand-
Symbols of grace abide in tribes of heroes-
We represent a prosperous palms of an ancient land.
We are the African selfie,
a descriptive map of Africa to the world.
What our faces look like is what she is!
What we tell is whom...

like a selfie 
that wasn’t taken
I’m the guy in the street

I know 
you’re captioning me
from your side of the road

and the shops 
with their massive eyes
are making me too viral

My cousin and I were dismayed
By the kids who were in her third grade
They had no answers to tell
Though they spoke very well
And knew how impressions were made!

They earned an A+ for endurance
For displaying remarkable effluence
They could babble all night
With no fact in sight
Nor any...
