Ego
he crossed my path
so I shouted him off
imbecile arrogant
what does he know?
how dare he question
my main intention
when still I figure out
what to do?
how dare he ask
share water from pond,
when I own the land
and that only pond,
says he I may own
the structure around,
but land and water
belong to God!
water must be shared
with the thirsty many,
because the water is always
to quench the thirst,
the land we walk is never ours
but one day the land
will claim us as its own!
he trades kindness with all
and he has a following!
I have all the wealth
but I am all alone!
why should I care to reason with him?
To me he is mean and a little dim!
