Ode to the self absorbed

There is more to life than you!
More to offer than what you do
Your self importance is such a yawn
Your lack of intuitiveness breaks at dawn
Parting has never been so kind
A life absorbed-
flour bleached and now refined
Rolled into one selfish square
A tart so bitter beyond compare
All wrapped up in oneself
Neatly placed upon a shelf
Gathering dust day after day
And tightly packaged for display
But no one buys the sour tart
It sits there as a piece of art.
