Pride
No one ever chokes to death
Swallowing pride
So, all you go and eat yours up
Full with it I am here
And wear it on my arms as amulet
To keep free myself
From the evil spell of depression
I use it like a horse also
To ride on
At a time to fight with my bad mind
I get from devil’s humiliation;
Pride goes before fall
Let all crashing down today
On the ground pride is my shield
I use it in war
To fight against what is mean and evil;
It is my long time plan
To struggle against fall
Yet I take pride
In my victory
Fighting against those who are notoriously imbeciles.
