Re: The Narcissist

This is true ,However there is the situation where the page is trampled on so often and so insistently by the self involved regardless of attention that it spills across boarders and shows up far from home.

in shifting lines of time 
seen in shadows cast at the end of day
 the blood rose golden, colors play the evening turns the page
 fire light proceeds to write
 the Green opal eyes sparkle as they read the dancing shadows ther...
