Irony

Bella Shepard

 

There's a reason why we make mistakes,

So we aren't so full of ourselves

The irony is, that those who are full of themselves

Make the most mistakes

I just love irony

    United States – no irony.
    This everybody knows - so there!
    So who are you to buck the trend?
    You claim you’re English? Don’t you dare…

    Subscribing to stereotypes
    I need to get a few lines in
    Now if that’s the best I can do
    With an argument just so thin……………

    But unless I’m mistaken (and I do make some) yours is a good ’un, Bella.

      Thank you dear boy, for those inspiring and witty remarks. It's a cloudy day here, and you just made me smile.

      • Doggerel Dave

        Forsooth m'dear, you are indeed the Princess of Irony.

          I'm write behind you all the way Bella .. this is a little gem ..

          Oh' n just for the record, I once bought my wife one of them old hot irons that you plug into a wall for her birthday ..

          She responded with a headbutt to me nose ..

          I can't stand it anymore she said, I hate this bloomin game .. now that's ironic, I suppose ... 🙂

            Well Neville, at least it wasn't something totally useless like flowers or jewelry, I hate that. Wait a minute, I think I just committed irony, I'm guilty of my own critique.

            The sad thing is, these people never realise they're full of themselves, they just stumble on.

              Thank you Paul, and you are so right. Stumbling through life is no way to live.

              so true dear Poet
              (we have ironing boards
              to straighten out those mistaken kinks
              in those façades we wear
              to fit-in with society's zeal for make believe
              yet we spend our lives, being judged
              by those who can never
              find the wrinkles in that persona
              mirror reflection...)
