The Three Categories of People

THE THREE CATEGORIES OF PEOPLE At the zenith great men stood unopposed Exonerated people of great wisdom and wealth The earth is their point of arrival and departure Terminus ad quo and terminus ad quem Always excelling at the slightest opportunity Success! Their pinnacle of glory They make things happen”. In the middle mediocres squat opposed Thou they find themselves comfortable where they are Making no effort to move forward Always ready to serve the lords of the pinnacle Yet they feel like waking up at the peak Imagining the world to be a place of existence They try to make things happen but lack the will”. Down are struggling large multitudes of people Who blame the world for what they are They are mask men to themselves Value can never be attached to their life Surely existing not living in a world of theirs Inferiority personified, pathetic without vision Looking and not seeing, hearing and not listening Ready to embrace whatever comes their way Pessimistic persons with great dreams they can’t realize. They watch things happen”. WHERE DO YOU BELONG? ...Lordvip...
