Felix and Andrzej
are looked down upon
by the entire world.  

That doesn’t bother them
in the least.  

They are both good
at what they do.  

They’re proud of that.  

They both get “EXPERT”,
in big fancy letters
tattooed across
their shoulder blades.  

They tend to be,
a little bit self-centered.

Knowing who and what you are is the foundation for building strong self esteem---right on, Felix and Andrzej!

Good work, Bobby.

Thanks Art,

Felix and Andrzej thank you, and send their best, and so do I.  It's always nice to be an expert.

For some reason this brought smiles, dear Bobby!

Imagine everybody wondering ... surely you were EXPERTS in surviving!

A just dosis of self-centredness is important.

You wrote this very well.

Love,
Margherita

Thanks dear Margherita,

I'm pleased that this poem worked well for you.  Of course you're correct, a person has to look after their own well being.  It's an obligation.

Everyone is an expert at something. Sounds like the boys were having some fun.

Thanks dear Ida,

What you say is very true.  Felix and Andrzej always have fun--well, some of the time anyhow.

My Dad used to say to me to pick something that I'm good at and then work at it until I became the best at it!

Apparently I didn't listen! I'm a Jill of all trades ~ and a master at none! Oh, but that isn't entirely true. Years ago I could always solve 3 rubic's cubes in 4 1/2 minutes ~ or less! My dubious claim to fame! lol

Those boys had a great attitude!

Thanks dear Linda,

Three rubic's cubes would make a great shoulder tattoo--think about it.

Yes, they do have the right attitude.  They will go far.
