A Modern Narcissus


Many know of Narcissus

Who was found quite ridiculous

When he spoke with an inflection

So self-centered in his reflection

 

Few see though, today

How they push others away

To look upon a mirror of their own

Nestled in their mobile phone

 

Though, there are ups and there are downs

Not every jester laughs with clowns

But when we laugh at Narcissus

The others know to laugh at us
