This topic always catches me, I was married to one and you caught it perfectly in few words. I would have metered it closer together like :
A flaw, you say? In me? You jest.
'Cause as you see, I am the best!
Good luck unknown poet.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
Comment from Liz O'Neill
Narcissism is for many, an all-incompassing part of a borderline condition. But I heard at a conference, " we all have a summer home on Borderline Island. It just depends upon how much time we spend there. Some move in." This was a good topic to address especially in the current political climate. Thank you.

I see that this person doesn't think he has the flaw in him. I like how this is funny in a sense that he thinks he's perfect, but is imperfect. Excellent work! Good luck!

Yup! That's a big flaw, lol :) This is a fun entry in the I Am Not Perfect Contest. I miss some artwork, but I'm not sure what would fit your poem. I wish you luck in the contest.

I'm afraid I haven't mastered the addition of artwork. I would have added a lady smiling in a mirror (if I had the ability....perhaps in time). Thank you for the review.

Haha, I love this. It was very fun to read and it's quite a different approach to the topic which I love. All in all, I really enjoyed reading this poem and think it's a great writing prompt entry.

Short, sweet, and directly to the point. Great twist in this short tale of introspection. Should be a shoe-in to win (as it's the best!). Wish you well in the contest... ...ec

Comment from Marilyn Lou Berry
A great poetic illustration of a narcissist! The rhymes are points of proof where jest counteracts the opinion of one who sees the narcissist as flawed and best proves the narcissism. A cool poem of deviant psychology.

I think this is a good entry for the I Am Not Perfect writing prompt.
This short verse tells of a sardonic twist.
Well done and I wish you lots of luck with the contest.
