For Attention With Each Other

At social and community gatherings where people do meet For attention with each other many do compete Miss Pretty looks well with the tints in her hair She feels that than her there is none quite so fair Mr Swell looks quite well in white shirt and blue tie But as is said of appearance sometimes it does lie He feels that he is god's gift to woman kind To too much love of self he seems rather inclined At the community gathering or attention seeking night The town's social climbers compete for the limelight In the age of the selfie it is only true to say That many love self in a very big way In the early twenty first century the competition for attention between people is rife In this cyber age it has become part of life The look at me syndrome does seem the in thing So many their own praises willing to sing As always few things in life ever does last The days of humility are of the past At community and social gatherings where people do meet For attention with each other many compete.
