My Buttered Back, an audio

My Buttered Back Audio

What follows is a flame tanka and gasp it rhymes. 

It also mixes metaphor into a lovely little melange that bites back. 

I wrote it many moons ago. 

So is it about you … probably not … 

Unless you think it's about you.

 And then it is. 

But I'm certainly channeling another poet. 

It's not may fault you have a guilty conscience.

 In short let the merit of your words match your actions 

Or better yet … 

Let the merit of your actions surpass your words.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

A very personal and intense commentary on someone who has let you down it seems. So well described and portrayed in a sublime piece.

[Pryde Foltz]

Thank you, John. Wasn't a big deal but the poem that resulted a lot of fun:)

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Having the fun with it makes it even more special.

Well is a good job I don't consume butter. So that rules me out. But on the wiriting side of things it is quite a moment to realize that you have this way of saying things without insulting, without the need to be offensive but still in my world highly effective. I gues what I am getting at is there is still signs of beauty although the subject isn't.

Thankyou

[Pryde Foltz]

Thank you, Rene … the key is concentrate on the behaviour and not the person. We love the person even if we wish they would behave differently.

Somebody really ticked you off!

[Pryde Foltz]

LOL … nah this was from a long time ago .. but yes they ticked me off, over and over again:)

[MomzillaNC]

Some will never stop ticking us off! If we're very lucky, someone will be so good to us that we forget to remember those bad old days.

[Pryde Foltz]

Oh I have moved beyond but the poem is still lots of fun:)

[MomzillaNC]
