I Know Myself

People are talking Whispers do not concern me, I have a purpose. People are pointing, Their smiles are weird and smug, I revel in this. They think they know me, They are small and misinformed, I gloat in knowledge.

Love it and describes how we should all self-refer than object refer. 'I gloat in knowledge' a great line and I refer this to my own mindfulness.

Oh a powerful poem of self-empowerment, self-confidence and self-appreciation, Caren. I love it! An excellently expressed poem with a strong and self-assured title as well. Warmest wishes. ~Susan
