______________________________________________________________ Will I descry my consort before I settle? Always ecstatic but never got a medal Abide by the authentic route, even if slowly I purport to originate, although closely No difference in inducing if I am late As long as I reach my destination, sedate I won't strain to delight everyone I meet There's always someone who goes deceit. Instead, I contrive on my own fate Leaving no whiff of evidence, a cold case I strive to stay relevant, to clutch weight Learning from past experiences as I retrace. No one has sustained anything from me Nobody ever got out with it, do you foresee Justice won when my door was kicked in Justice revealed the culprits were jailed within. If you can't stand the heat, avoid the kitchen Since the kitchen stove is waiting. My hand folds in awe with every sigh, God-given, I grasp and cherish life's depth relating.

"I strive to stay relevant, to clutch weight Learning from past experiences as I retrace.". This I must say is the right attitude. Having a stand of one's own and staying firm in one's own convictions and strength is the quality of a seasoned mind. It is when we are not confident of ourselves that we cower and stoop to please every Dick and Harry. A poem remarkable for the strength of thought and the beauty of composition.

My friend Sotto, your way with depicting and delivering your life experiences in rhymes and in such a poetic manner truly is just beyond impressive. I really love the flow of this and the way you’ve expressed here is so creative. And moving. I especially love “ i wont strain to delight everyone i meet” yes, i can feel the strength of your aura through just that line itself, one who stands for whats right and doesn’t intend to please everyone. “ justice won..” whoa those lines are powerful.

This piece has been articulated in a very powerful way that reflects so much strength and the raw truths of your heart. A meticulously crafted write with so many lines that I could relate with here.. Staying truthful, original and honest to one's own self is the utmost foundation of self-belief and peace.. The depth of each and very line here speaks so much and it's definitely a brilliant piece!
