Dapper-Life personified!

Dapper-Life personified!

A Poem by fattycbreezy52

Elegantly dressed like a beautifully groomed young man,
Life appeared to me 
Looking very dapper in a dark silk suit.

It extended it's great sun-burnt hand and waited for me to nod my demented head.
It asked me whether I could dance, to which I groaned.
I confessed that I did not clearly have that "Ballerina" potential in me.
It attempted a sardonic smile and said, "Let's see, how you behave on the dance floor".

And to it's utter amazement.
I failed.
No heels, nothing. 
Yet, I couldn't dance.

A gentleman has to maintain a good face even if he is accompanied by a lunatic lady.
So, life tried every possible trick to make me go with the flow.
It pinched me, it squeezed me, assaulted me
Until, I was dog-tired and sapped,
Lying completely prostrate.

It laughed like a lunatic this time.
But it's message was not lunatic,in any way! 
It told me right to my face, 
"Baby, you are a badass"

It meant that it tried very hard to lull and cradle me, and tried to adapt me to every demanding situation,
And make me dance like a Ballerina, devoid of all the burdens and taxes (which life charges).

 I replied back like a 16 year old teenager, 
"Yeah, but reality doesn't come with a background music" 

                                      
                                        


                                            And I slept............!
