It is not so much,
that you win and I lose
that bothers me
but more that
the scent of smug
hovers
in the stifling air.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

That is usually about the time I say, "Oh Yeah? RE-MATCH!"



Nothing like the smell of smug to bring out "killer instinct" in me!

wonderful write, Keth!

Sister poet, you sure got that right!

Aye! There's the rub!
The look on the face
That is so smug!

A great right write!

P.S. I can lend you the cloth I use to wipe the smug off of some faces! tehe

Yes, and that really hurts. However, what goes around comes around, and sometimes we get to see it....and then have to stiffle the smirks.  

You captured much here...like this.
