Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

GET A LIFE!

Spare me your ditty of self-pity...

Your ballad of self-obsession;

Be aware this life we share

Is a "sad and glad" procession

That we all join from another's loin

Without a say in the matter

So make the best of all the rest

And leave out the "me...me" chatter!

ARB - in a sense, you are right, of course. It's me losing patience
with the frequency of those who seem perpetually inward-looking
but not keeping it to themselves. Perhaps believing that misery
loves company.

It seems like a very "me-me" poem

Not so, MC! We need much more self-indulgent navel-gazing on this site.
