Brace Yourself

I don’t know how to tell you this,

It really is disturbing,

I hope that you’re prepared to hear

this news that’s quite unnerving

 

I was stunned by this great insight

that came clear out of the Blue:

the Center of the Universe called ~

and ~ surprise!  It wasn’t you.

HA! Witty and brilliantly sarcastic, so definitely relatable for me. I love the rhyme and how you flowed with it, building up suspense so the read expects a serious fact, then you're sarcastic, hysterical end. Brilliant work

[Rita L. Sev]

:) Thank you, Will. For some people, this would indeed be shocking news... :)

[Angi]

Ha! You mean there are other people at the center??!! Ha! Nicely done jab. I hope it didn't blacken their eye too badly. Angi~

[Rita L. Sev]

Ha! Well, I'll let you know. I've had a thousand of these printed up... ;) Thanks, Angi!

Beats " You`re dumped" by a mile, Rita! ....I`d guess it`s pretty near the ultimate putdown! P.

Ooh! I would love to celebrate Reality Check Day! Perhaps you (being the Center of the Universe) could be grand marshal at the parade... ;P LOL!

I am so glad you told everyone else this but why didn't you pick up your phone when I called?

Well penned as always. Wit, good rhyme and meter and yet again "Sevical".

[Rita L. Sev]

Haha! Talk about wit... ;) Thanks, Steve!

[SteveB]

Usually when people speak about my wit they preface it with nit, dumb, or half.
