Sounds like I would have been annoyed after the first couple of minutes. No one asked him to stop? I think I would have. Your words certain;y do paint a pretty bad picture. Take care, my friend~Debbie

Thank you Debbie:)
Comment from Michelle Joy
I love the fact you don't present an imagine so that the reader can form one in his or her own head. This was a very creative poem and I love your style, especially the repetition and your excellent use of parentheses. It was an easy, clear read that flowed very nicely.

Comment from inside echo
Lol, goodness, he sounds like quite the annoying sight and sound. My mind sure cant picture this guy.. just out of curiosity, did he have a nearly bald head or longish hair. Well written. What a character he is. Well done.

I didn't pay much attention to his hair I guess. I think just below the ears. Other than seeing his tats and clothes, he didn't get my attention except to annoy me lol. thanks echo:) h

Comment from Dean Kuch
I've gone to all different types of bars. As a member of a dart team, the only place one can compete is in a tavern, a club, or a sports bar. I drink coffee. I'm always and forever the designated driver on any such outing.
That being said, I could easily picture the sort of obnoxious, moronic, brain-dead beefcake you made mention of here, Teresa, and have seen my fair share of them. They turn my stomach every time with their, "Hey! Look at me, aren't I something? Aren't I fabulous, wouldn't you like to be me!?" demeanor. It isn't just the guys, however. There are many women who act just as idiotic.
Me? I play darts. It's the only reason I go. Well that, and to be with friends. I went to HOOTERS recently for a poetry slam. That was...interesting.
Great work.

Hi, Teresa...
_ My goodness--your description is really great.
_ I can picture him in all his 'Whoop Whoop-Woo Woo' glory!
_ Pity the person he took home (if he did), what a night of strutting they must have had!
_ Good job.
Cheers & Blessings

Comment from Linda Kay
I like line adds a layer to the mental image of this guy as you read the poem. Everyone might imagine him
A little differently, but your words create a definite unforgettable character.

Comment from Lovinia
Hi Teresa
I've come across a few of those myself. Up-staging everyone's social event. You certainly painted quite an image with your descriptive language ... I love the "whoop whooop, woo-woo-wooo-wooo ... hahah! I would never have thought how to put that in words. :)) A fun read, yet I can feel your frustration.
A great visual in the first verse, and all audial in the second. Such a great sum up in the third verse:
"He was seen (scene?)
and loudly heard,
his voice still echoes in my head."
Even your concluding verse provides the ultimate image ... "strut, strut, strutting."
Excellent form, interesting, humorous and entertaining. Well done. Lovi xoxo
