Those Who Make Claims Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Those Who Make Claims



Being friendly,
And having a few close friends...
Is quite a difference.

Those who brag about their friends,
But can not depend on them...
Delude themselves with being popular.

The same applies to the giving of respect.
I don't have to know you to do it.
But many who don't do it at all,
Seem to be the ones who delude themselves...
With a notion that the not doing of it,
Makes them popular.

Being friendly,
And having a few close friends...
Is quite a difference.
We know when, where and what time it is,
That we can disrespect each other.
And not take it personal.

However...
Those who make claims to have lots of friends,
Have no clue which one...
Will kick them under the bus,
Regardless of when, where or what time it is!
