Sarcasm

liked your poem on sarcasm... can't say I never use it but I do agree with you, and I tend to stay in trouble for being too direct at times... sometimes I see it and keep quiet.. I have a friend that uses sarcasm all the time, I find it annoying and call him on it quite often... say what you mean to me.. it is much more appreciated.. thank you for posting this piece... Richard

Great Piece, Yours, Ian.T PS Woops It was well written and thought out thank you for this one.....la la la

Simple but well stated Chrys

Linda, I enjoyed reading this one, good job~ "There's no trick to being a humorist when you have the whole government working for you." Will Rogers

but I am a firm believer that Sarcasm is an art form. There is a time and a place for everything though, and it is true that sometimes you should just tell it like it is. Tom

enjoyed reading this one.... I really like the line about saying what you mean not something in between.... really do people think we are stupid? Sarcasm is a fancy word for mind games. Patty

*whispers* put a space between 'in' and 'between'. Otherwise, good piece! :~) ~Jess K. ---------------------------------------------------- "I just read an article on the dangers of drinking.... Scared the crap out of me. So that's it! After today, no more reading!" - Lex M.

but I would either remove the comma, or add a space after the comma in the line "humble, of course"

Smiles:) Barbara I am so sarcastic at times I don't no I am doing I'm so good at it. agree with you it is not good. but my honesty gets me in trouble all the time as I am too direct, so I usually annoy people by learning other ways to say what I mean, but people see right through it. so I keep my opinion to my self even that annoy people as some want to hear it. Hopeless case I am. glad you wrote this makes me think. too extreme, no balance or in between for me. change hurts

where I come from anyhow, as it means putting someone into reality lol And then again the anger in sarcasm is no good. Diplomacy, I think, as best as one can deliver may be the route lol thinking out loud here. I enjoyed this writing about making contact. Thanks, Mark

Though I love the poems, sometimes I love the comments even more, how sarcastic does one have to be to see that it's all fading to various shades of grey, in either case? lol. Good write. ~A

thanks for making me read this. I am used to getting into trouble due to both my blunt-axe honesty and my love for sarcasm. I can easily see why my poem reminded you of this one. A great write! Being honest, not sarcastic, Ink

and it from an honorary Texas gal from Ohio. *L* I really like it my friend. Well done and yes, I pronounce Route as rowt and not root also. *LOL* Loved it! Respectfully, Rett: "It’s impossible to smile on the outside without feeling better on the inside." Purplemoondoll
