Having Tea with Me

Hello all and welcome to Having Tea with Me. The main purpose of this blog is to share various works of poetry and art I have done over the years. Sometimes I will post someone else's art and or poetry as a tribute to them. Here is my first poem.

Egotist  
         
Locks of gold
Under chemical restraint
Turning soft, silky strands
Into a sculpture of his design
A man only a mother could love

Truth of his heart
Locked away by his muscular
Pectorals, abdominals, and ego
All draped in suffocating, black material
A man who can not obtain a lover

A gentle heart and kind soul
Shallowness and selfishness obscures
Capability of love and affection
Self-centered to the core
A man who can not learn from his mistakes

He hides the truth behind darkened glass
He raises his shields to impress
Yet he knows time and time again
All he needs is show his pure self
Open the curtains! Show them who you really are!
