Selfish? I never sold a fish in my life
Of course I'm self centered, if I wasn't I'd be off balance
And if I wasn't head strong, I'd be weak minded
You say I'm into myself, if I wasn't I'd be out of my mind
Furthermore, if I wasn't a free spirit you wouldn't be able to afford me

Narcissists think they are perfect .. they also think their all it .. they can’t think of themselves as less than
Thank you so much for your review and comments.
'blame it on my ego
for letting you go
but never blame my vanity
for letting loose your audacity
it's all just nature
to you and me...'
(lol
such a fun reading treat
thank you, dear Poet)
Thank you for your review and poetic comment that highlights my day.
Interesting it is to try to understand. Thank you for sharing
Thank you for reviewing and commenting on this piece
I read this through the first time, and enjoyed. Upon the second reading I got the Selfish, never sold a fish in my life and had to burst out laughing. How did I miss that the first time? The true narcissist can justify anything, and you've captured that to a tee.
Bella so nice to hear your words and encouragement. Thank you for your review and comment.
Quite interesting to read a poem on a personality. You did get the pulse of narcissist perfectly. Nice write !!
Thank you so much for your review and kind words.
Enjoyed this play on words which describes this personality perfectly.
Thank you so much for your review and kind words
Sorrennnnn SORRENNNNN!!! YOU ATE IT UP with this one. I'm literally at a loss for words. I love your sass and your sarcasm with the lines "Selfish? I never sold a fish in my life" I literally gagged when i read that line, and this poem LITERALLY encapsulates my messages in most of my poetry: live for yourself. In the poem "Giving Up Poetry" I tried to convey that message of, "Just because I promote focusing on self, doesn't mean we shouldn't focus on others." I totally live for kindness and generosity, but to put it straightforward, if we can't love ourselves, how in the world are we going to love others. Wonderful job!
Rocky you are too generous. Thank you for your review and kind comments.
