My Self

 

 
I take good care of myself
it's the only self I have
of course there is himself and herself
even their self
but I think only of MY self
that may be selfish
but that's human nature
we love our self
and want to protect our self
and if we have to pick
our self over some other self
we always revert to our self
we are self-righteous about it
sometimes we get accused of
not being our self
but it's usually brief and then we
go right back to being our old self
I love my self
with abundance
so I have a Self-storage unit.

More welcome humour with a touch of reality from this source.
I confess that I smile when I witness accusations of "selfishness"
as they invariably mean "You're not thinking of ME!" Also, by
looking after number one, it is then possible to be able to look
after others, n'est pas? ?
