Modesty For Everyone
Everyone is special with a certain claim to fame
And accordingly, everyone is nothing just the same
So when you step back and ponder who and what you are
Remember the practices you’ve done to get this far
And though, the thoughts bypass on how great you have become
Humble yourself quickly or from ruin, you may run
It’s the epitome of ignorance that judges all the world
While disillusion fertiles thought of a life neatly furled
For, it doesn’t really matter what you think you have become
Denying dispensability will put you back where you came from
Each and every one of us is here to help one another
And, everyone out there is your sister and your brother
So when modesty surpasses you, and you have the world by the tail
Beware of the experience of what it’s like to fail.
