Pride

Pride

Pride corrupts each mind
Flies on powerful bleak wings
To perch on weak souls
Contaminates heart
Pouring venom in eye's view
Satan's evil scheme
To kill brotherhood on earth
False egos hamper
Relations beyond repair

I had to read your poem several times to appreciate all the meaning you've written into it. This is well done. I like especially your line 'flies on powerful bleak wings'. Excellent imagery all within this write. Congratulations on your winning placement in the contest. Take care. Deb
