Short Narcissists Poems

When a narcissists riding of
The tunnel of love is planned
He’ll want to sit alone in a car
So he can hold his own hand...

Bad prose masquerading as poetry,
darkness posing as light

Words stacked on top of words uttered in vain

When heaven's been discarded
and our dreams are lost forever,
then we will wail o'er our 
misspent fortune-- our small
time in history, soon to be 
forgotten by twittering birds
and grossly fat narcissists....

Nurturers meet a need.
Naomi advised Ruth;
Nathan counseled David.
Nicodemus backed Christ.
Narrow-minded people, 
Narcissists by nature,
Nurse their own poverty.

Love is Dead
Only false love exists in this world 
Filled with Pretense,
You give and I take
Is the common inner practice. 
Gratitude for Awareness is the key
To blissful happiness. 
Avoid Users 
Avoid Narcissists
Avoid Arrogant Fools 
Avoid 
And retreat into your inner sanctuary.
Alone....

narcissists with huge egos slither and slink ~ hmmm, what would Rumi think

a sly smile on their lips, thinking it's a disguise ~ not from many eyes

having an overly aggressive attitude ~ it's just plain a-rse rude

they are like lemons with sour zest ~ for goodness sake, please give it a rest

As the honey bee is drawn to the flower
So too is a Narcissist drawn to an Empath

As the honey bee travels flower to flower
So too does the Narcissist run their list

As the honey bee survives by the flowers
So too does the Narcissist survive by their audience

Narcissists love exploiting others
Empaths naturally heal others...

In the mirror's gaze, a beaming reflection found..
Ego's captive, their world forever bound.
A facade of grandeur, a charade of delights..
Narcissists embrace, their relentless fights.

Obsessed with self, a hollow soul resides..
Lost in vain pursuits, where empathy subsides.
To laugh or weep, never sees their need..
Trapped, they're blind to all, a prisoner of greed....

A hermit without a shell is a
weak, pitiful creature.
It wonders alone for onlookers to
moisturise their naked skin with 
empty tears.
They feel no shame when mocked 
for their fetishized strife;
flagrantly flailing their flaking skin
to justify their tantrums.
The terror and turmoil that it sheds 
plagues even those passingly amused.
Until we are all naked, afraid and alone....

I must tell you,
I find the narcissistic personality
Somewhat disgusting --
The type who loves
Only him/herself, you see,
On the inside never adjusting,
Who obviously think
They are superior to the nth degree,
Fame and fortune lusting.
Loving to see their name in print
They seize opportunities
To say, “Look at me!”
I suspect they are secretly rusting!

We’re losing America
  while losing our minds

Our spirits in hiding
  our souls hard to find

The nation in freefall
  all fingers to point

One side at the other
  common values disjoint

We’re losing America
  in front of our eyes

A narcissists poison
  our heritage dies

Each part is now greater
  than the sum or the whole

What our patriots died for
  lost, forgotten—untold

My friend so far away       It is not a concern    For you are in my heart everyday   I am so aware that each time a thought of me enters your mind       They are thoughts so loving and simply kind      I need your caring and positive mind       To ward off the narcissists with hate in their hearts, walking the earth blind     Rude being their one and only attitude      I hope that you know you are but special to me       How fortunate are we?...

My day is simply incomplete;
    no one else has liked my brilliant tweet.

And now, the views make matters worse,
    prove I’m not so clever - how perverse!

-------------

All of twitterdom seems to be lamenting the new feature of showing how many people have viewed your tweet. Pretty funny - people seem genuinely depressed at the number of folks who view their tweets without leaving a comment or a like. We are a nation/world of narcissists......

Poetry once inspired
philosophical exchanges
a rational discourse which sought
the higher moral grounds of civility 
paving the way of social change....

But narcissists became the poets
self-absorbed demi-gods
who corupted poetry
till its message was lost
in insane metaphor....

Poet what vision can be found
When haughty words are roared
complicating the simple meaning
of poetic verse 
once whispering shades of love......
