Arrogance

This disease form whence it came We have no inkling It came with wealth and evil fame I pity those who come to thinking That they are the center of time and place And everyone will bow in respect They befriend reflections of their face That is their one and only aspect When their world falls apart because of mistake They will not ask for others’ help They will say pride is at stake! They will not ask for others’ help This disease from whence it came I still am thinking.
