Note to self

With regards to that excuse of a walnut sized bag of s**t you claim as a brain,

bare this f*****g little gem in mind...

You are not me,

you will never be me,

you don't want to be me.

Your facade repels me beyond belief,

your snide "reflections" about my appearance only concrete my opinion of you...

worthless.

Why are you here..no..really..what purpose do you serve?

Will you be missed when you are rotting in a dumpster?

And you are hellishly, f*****g ugly...

Oh,by the way,note to self..

Buy a new mirror and stop talking to yourself !

Here, you have a poem. I have a diary of sort where I only write all the F-words and the hell-words that comes to mind when I'm not feeling/doing/writing/accomplishing anything that is worth feeling/doing/writing/accomplishing. I was ashamed when I first wrote on that diary-of-sort and I was terribly anxious that someone might read it (note that my hell-words are oftentimes in BOLD letters and in RED pen). But then, I noticed that facing the war of the self head-on and without that awkward and very hindering pretense that all is well and that I am doing good, actually made me feel good fast, after all the BOLDs and the REDs were written. So I'm loving this note of yours. It's like you also have a diary-of-sort (a page torn, maybe), and I was allowed to read the hell-words and hell-thoughts. Good one. :)

Conversations rattle around even when i'm shaving...dangerous!

[EloisaWrites]

Hahaha! That's because you're a writer, Bob! If we don't talk to ourselves, how are we ever going to write? haha. Be careful picking a fight when shaving, though. :)

[Bob Sherunkle]

[EloisaWrites]

[Jay Steitler]

I've known my share of self-absorbed, backbiting people lately; people who view others as commodities, rather than flesh and blood. I do believe I've had similar reactions. Nice piece!

[Bob Sherunkle]

Many thanks Jay

[Catlen]

Very witty :))) I like it.

If you don't mind me pointing it out, there are two typos. when your rotting / your f*****g (both should be you're) I don't know much about poetry and you might have done so for the sake of syllables, but anyway I thought I mention it.

[Bob Sherunkle]

Hey,not a problem,I probably wasn't paying an awful lot of attention!

[Trevor Barnett]

Sounds like my internal conversations I have with myself sometimes Bob. Very funny, but stern as well. Good write!

[Bob Sherunkle]

Agreed.As I said to Lourisa,I find myself doing this a little to often these days! A little self analysis goes a long way..or the wrong way?

[Lourisa]

Ah yes, those lovely talks we have with that best friend/greatest enemy we harbour within ourselves. Great write!

[Bob Sherunkle]

Hey Lourisa,thanks..the older I get,the more I find myself staring in disgust at what's looking back!

[sonnie ibadah]

LMFAO! on a serious note, what happened to your modesty? LOL! Just kidding! Guess we need to slap ourselves in the face once in a while. i like your work, you're real. Raw, pessimistic, straight forward-real.

[Bob Sherunkle]

Ha! it was something i was thinking about the other day while shaving and had a wee laugh to myself.thanks for reading.

[sonnie ibadah]
