Heather OC: Week 38 of 208

How Oddly One Falls


One morning, we will wake up

      Elated at the passing.

So little harm at the loss

       Of one who has done

                So much of it.


There is no Scrooge-like

      Intervention for someone

Who lacks wisdom to be

        Sorry. Narcissism


Is a cruddy business

       And will leave one


    Alone and despised;

Dancers in the street

         At your demise.

But, isn’t that what

    He had hoped for

            The whole time?
