Hey, David. It is great to see a new post from you, my friend!
And you've returned with a vengeance, it would appear, LOL.
I liked the bouncy, limerick-like cadence of this.
Your poetic, rogue's apology features great rhyming, in a unique and interesting style, with inventively created quatrains.
Great meter, as per your usual work, and I love how it doesn't take itself too seriously...or, does it? :}
Good stuff!

Oh,Marillion, it's so good to see you back. The gals have been gagging for you. Some, like Paulah60, have left the site to become a nun, out of sheer lack of poetic parry. Your poem shows that you haven't lost your iambic touch and your wit is on display as much, as ever it was before. Welcome back. the standard just went up two notches and I look forward to seeing what you come up with next.

Ohhh Rogue, so nice to see you back and to read your beautifully rhymed work. Enjoyed this thoroughly.
Adept always in summing up beautifully penned work: But you have sight in black and white, And I in only gray.
You did not disappoint on this one. Enjoyed thoroughly. AT=/

I've been hoping to see something new on your page!
I've missed your exquisite rhyme and meter, the eloquent wording, the complex layers of meaning...
what went wrong with this one?!??
(kidding!)
Good to see you! Here's a 'sixer' as my welcome back gift!

I got my 44 holstered, on safety, but it is ready pal should I see you around my house. Glad to see you and your precisely metered free-thing verses again. Kenny

I've known a couple of 'shades of grey' men in my time--and gotten sorely burnt/burned. More fool me, ha, but live and learn. The irony with these guys is that, after the sting eases a little, they always manage to leave a touch of their essence with you, regardless, so that you can forgive from a safe distance. It's nice to be human, even if a trial. The thoughts in the final stanza sealed it beautifully. Excellent insightful poetry. JJ

So you're the sociopath my mom warned me about ----lol
Actually, nicely written, the aa/ occasional rhyme/ scheme works well and keeps the poem moving at a lively pace. (like your love life?) lol
I liked the way you describe these poor girls as seeing in black and white - while your own moral metric is rather blurred and gray.
Oh well, who knew?
Very clever.

I was surprised to see your name here. Welcome back. Hope your dad's good, still. I got a kick out of this poem. The title really tickled me after I read the poem and got the connection. (I first read it as color-blind.) Liked the sound of the write and the way it rhymed. Liked the rogue's carefree attitude too. Lol.
You always make your poems sound so effortless, yet they always make sense (in a nonsensical way). And your wording is right on!

Most intriguing and provocative 'rogue' reflection!
You 'tell it like it is' with no apologies and
no regrets, thus making it a candidly creative reality
and revelry. Lots of wisdom and truth to your musing..
liked or nor...it's real!
Thanks for sharing, best always, Ronni
