Narcissi Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

Narcissi

Rating: 5.0


Narcissi seems alive in us all
Attention upon self oft to call,
Staring into mirrors
To gloss over errors,
Narcissi, every Peter and Paul!
Ugly self to cover
Of varied masks wearer,
Narcissi, a too much done up doll;
A false image maker,
Avid selfie taker,
Men-women who in own esteem fall!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
The package when gets more attention than the product, style more than the substance, outer husk more than the inner kernel, Narcissi comes of age.

Ugly self to cover, well said dear poet, that is why we need to wear various masks today, one each for many an occasion. Thanks for visiting.

In a way if we like the ego, the pretender, and not the real self, yes, we all are narcissists, I can't agree more dear PP.
