Self Absorption (Haiku)


Self absorbed people
Never think of anyone else
Only me, me, me

So consequently
Never expect a thank you
It ain't happening

If you teach your child
To say "Thank you" for every
Kindness they receive

Their way in the world
Will be appreciated
By those helping them

Undone and noticed
The person is put on hold
For future kindness

Then dropped from the list
Of those for whom others care
Having shown they don't
