Cycles

Success is a goal
We are surprised when it comes
We are still humble

Pride sets in on us
We stand a little straighter
Everything is fine

Restlessness sets in
We think we are pretty good
Arrogance is born

We strive to be known
Grandiose ideas rise
Levitating now

Creative pursuits
Mingled with our ambitions
Release our full minds

They take us away
Spinning yarns and fantasies
As long as we live

Cycles of living
Present daily challenges
Keeping us humble

Our sanity spared
The collective consciousness
Renews us once more
