Audacious Pomposity

Audacious Pomposity

A Poem by Frieda P

cast of grey within her shadow
cloak of feathers caught on high fire

struts her hubris down the pike
lofty pretension parade in vain

no sense in bodacious apologies
all those she's wrecked are stone cold deaf 


drained of all exuberance
a simple splash of flash

drowning 

in her own presumptuous pomposity

Hahahahaha

This sounds like a write about me! :D :D :D
You reach a point when you realize no matter what you do, somebody somewhere will be offended. Apologies become fewer and further between for simply breathing the free air.

Teasing aside..
You have penned a clear message for some peacock. :)
Fun wording!
