You are bitter you are sweet Untrustworthy but discreet Very loving very Cruel Very wise but yet a fool. You are cheerful you are sad Always happy always mad Always sinning always saint Somehow normal somehow quaint You are here but somehow there You are caring but don't care You are woman you are child You are tame but very wild. You are faithful you are fickle You are expensive but cost a nickel Sometimes wife and concubine Sometimes dove yet serpentine. You are chaste but yet impure Of lowest caste of high allure Giving blessings casting a curse You are best and you are worst. You are civil very crude you are evil you are good. You are love and you are hate How I wish you weren't my mate. |

It's really the pits when one gets involved with someone like that! I know cause I did. Glad you enjoyed. BTW The poem describes a BORDERLINE case of multiple personality disorder. The person has sudden shifts in personality which can really be very frightening and annoying. Especially when the person refuses to seek medical attention and victimizes everyone within reach.

Radrook, both sides of the coin. I love the way you wrote this, but I can't decide if she was good for you or not. You do such excellent work. Thanks for sharing. Best Wishes With Love, Ethel |

[This message has been edited by regards2you (10-10-2002 09:40 AM).] Hi! Sorry but I cannot include half of humanity much less myself, as you insinuate, in such a negative description. Only the person involved and such as might share her multiple personality disorder and child abuse practices. BTW Being on good terms with some people is an impossibility-an exercize in futility. Hi Ethel: Radrook, both sides of the coin. I love the way you wrote this, but I can't decide if she was good for you or not. You do such excellent work. Thanks for sharing. Best Wishes With Love, Ethel Hi Ethel. No decision was required. It is simply a portrayal of a certain type of personality which is impossible to live with as described. Most people aren't that way. Unfortunately some women AND men are. Thanks for feedback. God bless! [This message has been edited by Radrook (10-10-2002 06:17 PM).] |
