The Self Delusion Resolved

I am not extremely important.
I am not powerful.
I have only minor influence.
I am a small person.

I thought I was omnipotent.
I defer to my leader,
To my country and to God.
I give my ounce of influence
To Lester Holt, journalist, NBC News.
This is my resolve.
Thank you for reading what I write.
