Self Efficiency
[ 'Self-Efficiency' is a poem-cum-advice for people with respect to philosophy of daily life.]
Never keep something for others to do,
It may not be done;
Never talk with someone who has walked in with you,
Talk with someone who has walked out;
Never be gaudy to someone,
They may suspect you;
You may pay reverence to others,
but, first have it yourself.
When do you remain placid?
In that stage, to yourself, do not forbid;
To be in a state of mind,
where you have nothing else to do but, bind;
Within a mustered crowd,
Have your ears limited to own,
When the situation becomes too grubby,
Try not defence but, to protest;
And when neither's the option,
Have your own thought and belief.
Never adjourn a pending do,
rather, hasten it faster,
Enchanting a rhyme or a dream,
Are same to a extent,
Both are never to be the truth;
To admonish the unsocials,
Valour's to be removed,
To hoard on it, is just useless;
The onset of marshal growth.
