Frothing Self-Love

Why I say -
Does it bother you so,
To leave the long courtship
Of a generous mercurial lover,
While standing on one foot
Is the piqued dream
Of your amorous hunger.
Was it your restlessness,
Was it your baseness,
Or was it you -
An unreliable self-righteous closet-chaser?
Whatever.
Just good to know,
At the core,
You are a narcissist,
Packaged like an aged-toothpaste,
Frothing the new-age mantra -
"Love thy self".
