Taken from the ancient Greek character who fell in love with his own reflection.

Somebody who is completely in love with himself/herself and most likely is intensely turned on by their relection. Somebody who is too vain and self-absorbed to notice other people.
I would not be the least bit surprised if Narcissus were from the United States; self-aborbed, self-important, jingoistic, bewildered at the thought that there are others in the world besides us... the U.S. seems to be the perfect breeding ground for narcissists.

Ann Coulter (to the mirror): Hello, beautiful. I'm so lucky to have you-! (kisses herself)

Bill O'Reilly (as he beats off at his reflection): God-! Gotta-have-that-!

An excess, overabundance, sufficiency, or surplus; too much, excessive, redundant.
China, Pakistan, and India have a glut of boys and young men in the millions and not enough women and girls to balance the sex ratio (which soars to as much as 140 males for every 100 females in some areas, at an average total of about 1.077 (107 to 108 males for every 100 females) for all three countries).

If same-sex couples were tolerated, if not accepted, in these countries then the said glut of young men might have some outlet, but LGBT life remains tenuous in the regions and thus the chances that this option will arise soon are very remote.

The Earth has an enormous glut of humans, too many fucking people (and vice versa), and that excess is driving other species to extinction.

1. Very pleasing to the senses.
2. Very sexually/sensually appealing
3. (of a woman's body) Broad-hipped, well-endowed in the breasts and butt, plenty of womanly curves; Marilyn Monroe, Crystal Renn, Sara Rodriguez, and Jennifer Hudson as opposed to Twiggy and Calista Flockhart
1. The bed with its plentiful blankets and voluptuous white pillows beckoned me to rest my head.

2. His arms were well-muscled and his shoulders broad avove his furred chest. His voluptuous torso, ample butt, and strong, masculine legs teased me as he jogged.

3. Her creamy complexion contrasted the raven black tresses that flowed down her back; her amber eyes as piercing as those of a cat; the low neckline of her bodice emphasised her full, voluptuous figure.

A form of art that uses language. Poets use the beauty of a language and its words to create a feeling or convey a message to the reader, whether the wording is soft, sweet, sunny, and a lovely walk through a meadow... or clotted, ugly, grungy, and conjures up images of a slum. Just like artists use images and colors to create a mood or message, poets use words to do the same thing.

Poetry has been around for over 5,00 years and it's still young, vibrant, and growing. Poetry might even go further into the past, since most people memorized poetry and passed it on orally; 5,000-year-old poems from Mesopotamia could have already been old when they were written.

The practice of memorizing poetery and passing it on by word of mouth is pretty much gone.

Humans change, but maybe their nature doesn't change very much; practically everything that could be said through poetry has already been said, often many times, albeit in different ways. Poets must be original and avoid any cliché if they want to look competent.

A form of art that places emphasis on words and language. In ancient times, poetry was memorised and carried by word of mouth. Today, most poems are written.

*Avoid any cliché, be original, or it will become boring and be regarded as poor.*

Poems may rhyme or not rhyme; there are so many ways to go with poetry... provided that the writer avoids any cliché, rambling, and doesn't state the subject of the poem directly.
Some of moi's personal poetry:
