Mine Slovenly Unkempt Appearance Spelled Embarrassment
Mine slovenly unkempt appearance spelled embarrassment
spurred by most recent therapy session
with Renee Cardone
whereby thematic thread
stitched how yours truly sewed
coping modus operandi,
viz avoiding emotionally volatile situations
courtesy mine trademark signature reactions
rather than be in compliance with expectations.
Said nonconformist passive rebelliousness
especially affected our eldest daughter
me and the missus begot
even when she became potential human,

Mine Slovenly Unkempt Appearance Spells Embarrassment
No rhyme nor reason why
yours truly recalled how
me late mother
(earlier in her fitbit livingsocial years)
non verbally communicated disgust
(insync with audible sigh)
quite often ultimatums
blasting fulminating nauseating
scathing well nigh
she loosed loathing against
grungy looking son (guess who)
futilely escaped wrath of Harriet Khan
clamoring upon rooftop high
offering birds eye view
out of earshot and eyesight aye
catching sunbeams while smiling wry

My hair makes Einstein’s look tame.
Am I really this hunched over?
My great-grandmother had a humpback

I am flat on my

Does that make sense? Could I ask for more?
The same doctor’s scale both of the times?
Am I hiding grapefruit? Have I hidden limes?
Five pounds heavier from Tuesday since last Friday?

tribulations

Slovenly
Smell of decay oozing out of its countenance
Lacks manners or good hygiene all round the clock
Overlooks the negative reactions shown by others
Violent in approach, sub-zero in character
Everyone around closes their minds, noses and hearts
Negating all attempts of socializing and interaction
Low, so below is this personality kept
Yet basks in its dirt, carelessness or repugnant features.
