The guy smiles and turns verbal somersaults. <br />He never says outright what rankles him most <br />about those others free of his self-delusion! <br /> <br />Instead he attributes his failures to them; <br />his resume bears witness to his pride <br />in self-serving accomplishments. <br /> <br />His rhetoric is rambling and confused, <br />more rant than reasoned thought <br />as he attacks with hysterical venom!<br /><br />Michael Pruchnicki<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-vain-man/
