the contrarian

the contrarian

A Chapter by Lyn Anderson
"

attitudinal explanation divination inspiration

"
There is a woman
a few years past
maiden
proud to be
a Canadian
you might mistake
her for a
teacher
a nurse
or a librarian
though her actual
occupation
is more
veterinarian
she is so much
a contrarian
it's enough
to drive
anyone
crazy -
you want to go up
but she'll go down
you say it's dark
she'll say light
and the b***h of
it is
she is probably
right!

Thanks so much. I appreciate your reviews, always.
Don't you hate people like that? Lol I do. They have to contradict everything you say in order to have the last word. Have you ever tried using reverse psychology on people like this? Next time tell them they are right! Will they admit to being wrong? If they are a true contrarian, then YES, YES they will. Awesome wit in this writing. Well done!

Haha, this made me smile. We all know someone like this who always seems to prove you wrong but you can never prove them wrong. Great write!

I have met someone like you before although she would probably say I didn't and she'd probably be right too. This was a very good descriptive poem today. I really liked this one.
