Mikey, this is a great companion write to Terry's. It often true for those with narcissistic tendencies. Don't stats show that a greater percentage of these types are men? The form is original, creative and aptly depicts a universal quandary. Well done. :0 GracieAnn

Great fun with this tongue in cheek piece. Always a treat when you write something engaging and fun for all audiences, but still manage to present your message clearly. Too clever and too deep sometimes leaves out the very people you wish to reach. Smart choice of style. NG

We never know the value of what we have until we don't have it anymore. Love the cartoon like form of your poem. Wittily written with a strong message. Great illustration-a knight in shining armour! Faye

I really appreciate the message, but this would get a 4 from me if it were by anyone else, so I guess I'll give you the same rating. I realize it's "recognized," so there must be something I don't get. I really didn't perceive the lyrical nature of this piece at all. For me, it doesn't flow, whether read aloud or silently. It has an interesting and important message, but it's not really cleverly stated (and you are usually so good at that).

Yeah, I've seen this quite a few times in my own family. It is so sad when a relationship of 20 or 25 years is abandoned. This is very well done.

Your notes mirrored exactly what I was thinking as I read the poem. "The grass always looks greener on the other side." Better to stay married to someone who remembers what you looked like when young. :-)

The king hungers and the king is going to have to get used to t.v. dinners and sleeping on the couch. Mid-life/late-life crisis never ends well. Tally ho!
