Because she could: a reblog for FOWC

I’m reblogging this in response to Fandango’s One Word Challenge which today is SUPERIOR.

She changed her boyfriends like the wind,
Because she knew she could.
She’d smile and lie, they’d never know,
(As if they thought she would)
She’d go out to eat, pile her plate high,
Because she felt she should,
Then leave half of it to be thrown away,
Despite it tasting good.

She changed her clothes three times a day
Because she knew she could.
Buy something new, not wear it once,
As her husband knew she would.
Looked down on servants as friends advised,
Because she felt she should,
Treating them with undisguised disdain,
Because it made her feel good.

She belittled and insulted all,
Because she knew she could,
Got away with her impossible demands,
Because she felt she would.
But pride cometh before a fall,
As they all knew she should,
No friends or allies rushed to her aid,
She realised this was not good.

No visitors…

About pensitivity101

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes! We have recently lost our beloved dog Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney, and now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of my GSD so had hers done too. From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives. We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.
