Well, you nailed this one! Very good description and flow, and carrying a great message, as well. Don't we all know someone like this? Well done!

    Thank goodness they only come in "sprinkles" - ha!! If there were too many of them around us, we might have a misdemeanor on a rap sheet! LOL!! Thanks for your great review. Always appreciated, Sue

Hi Again

I think you've really got the measure of this format. I read all the last contest ones and you seemed to be the only one who really mirrors around the central line which is what I think they need to make them work. (But then that's maybe just me)

Sonnet on way - may be a few days - real world needs dealt with lol

    OH!! I'm so thrilled to hear that!! After you deal with the real world, hunker down and write one. Betcha it will be much easier this time around. Thanks for remarking on the "central line". That's where I like to work up to build the story and then back again. Thanks for your great review and comments. Can't wait to see your next work! With regards, Sue

That's what. Sorry I missed your review here. Thanks very much, Charlie. As always, I love to hear from you. :-) Sue

Each word is essential in describing haughty, a word we do not use much in everyday language anymore.
I love the Victorian feeling it evokes, the utter superiority in its use.
Well done.

I love the artwork, it was perfect for this poem. Talk about getting the big head. I like these poems, are you doing a series for a book. It seems a lot of your topics are dealing with this subject matter. joan marie

Ah, a lesson in ethics. Your rictameter voices the duality of personality often found in those who feel superior to others. The picture you have chosen is perfect for this well-done poem. Excellent. Blessings, Linda

The world has far too many people who are like this. You've described their characteristics quite well. Being arrogant and full of one's self, is not a pleasant quality. Great picture also.

You seem to really like these Sue and you've mastered them nicely. I just can't stick to one form over and over. I have to mix it up daily. It seems to be the way my mind works! Well done as always.

    I have a mixture out there. Just like adding another ric to mix. Love 'em. I want to do a series of rics on various human virtues, attributes and the not-so-nice. Form lends itself well for that. Thanks for your review, Jude. Always appreciated, Sue

Perfect picture of my father. Your rictameter is nicely shaped, filled with great word choices, and easy-reading. Good job.

    Duane, sorry, but I had to crack up at your saying that. Just the way you said it. Thanks for commenting on the shape as well. And for your very kind review. Always, Sue
