Low Self Esteem

The moment you comprehend that 
No one is your foe,except yourself
You underrate your attainment
Hurl pebbles at yourself 

Eclipse your sun because you feel jeopardous
You dread to be defamed 
Yet yearn to be venerated 
One advice:monitor two dogs or cats meet

Beyond the identity sniffing,
Eyes contact,tail-wagging to signify their status
Still remember above all
Status is more in the giving than the demanding

That acting modestly is far better 
Than boasting in disguise 
Remember a cat has done it ever since creation
Gazing deep into the king's eyes .
