The lone wolf has been an icon of self reliance,
independence and authority defiance,
when in reality, the lone wolf leads a very harsh life indeed.
The lone wolf is alone because the pack forced it to leave....

Never to get favor
By disgracing other
It's like climbing mountain
As someone pushing you up
The winning has value
When having the self effort
Is done not in disdain but privy
Victory that is worthy is happiness....

defiant
     disdain
haughty
    self-reliance
envelops,
   then
     devours..
the proud:
taunts
provokes
    distrust,
if
never
unlearnt
becomes
    marooned
on
   an
     island
       of
           one..
..alone...

Personally, my path in life
Is a lonely one towards self-reliance...

My heart's inner guidance
Is what will keep me alive
(And what has kept me alive)...

My desire for freedom
And also for peace within my mind...
Let my strength increase....

Bitter sweetly, eventually, every parent must let their child go.
It's the sacrifice all parents must make
in order for their children to embrace
their self reliance and truly grow.
Still this empty nest
leaves an emptiness
ever so painfully hollow....

I will say no more often
I will not offer to help or solve  problems
I will give you a hint if you seem lost
I will promote self reliance
I will listen to more music
demand more silence and solitude
take care of  my self first
and drink pots of tea....

Carving a place into your earth
Calling it our own
We boast self-reliance
Yet search for you upon earthly faces
Comparing their eyes to your sea, your stars, your sky
Desiring for your earth to kiss us back
To hold us gently
Until we fall heavily 
Into your arms...

Be optimistic rather than fatalistic.
Don't squander and be elated hedonistic.

Retain moving; only the obdurate survive.
Hand jives your way to contrive.

Slump or solidity must be omitted. 
Wear awe mood when having moved. 

Don't be shy in taking elitism.
Self-reliance is a wedge of realism....

Rolling arrogance
Invasion of mind
Perception skewed by wire

Revelations are rarely kind
Evolution of self reliance
Pernicious egos construct conceit
Under the pressure of false-flag terror
Battling ourselves mercilessly
Leaving the thieves to pillage
Individual thought too great a threat
Constitutional privilege rendered dead...

Towards this world I am ambivalent.

Seeking not for retribution 

but focusing on clarity of mind.

One may have a tenuous grasp on  reality 

and still, achieve this.

For a blind man in the fog 

has the same chance as the sighted.

Self-reliance and intuition are his eyes.

As clear as day he walks his way.

Only he knows his own heart....

In you I trust. You symbolize a promise.
If self-reliance fails and footholds crumble
You’ll keep us safe from harm. You will protect us
If handholds break, if we lose grip, or stumble.

With you in reach I dare release the tension.
Your solid metal roundness will inspire
New confidence and faith. I can exhale now
The bated breath and, with relief, climb higher....

Never boasted 
Always looking 
Up to thy creator 
His power
Self reliance 
Believing he can do anything humanly possible.

Never chased clout
Steady Self reliance 
Believing in hard work 
Consistence in all he does 

Some people's love
Comes with intentions 
So; he's steadily relying on self
Without pretence or defence 
No alliance 
Just self reliance 
Only God his supplier or helper.

War


                                 the merciless violence
                                 death and silence
                                 loss of hope and self reliance
                                 They walked in the sunshine
                                 dead people lay everywhere -
                                 it is completely absurd

I,
A solitary expression of monumental proportions,
The sum of all parts with extra to spare,
The word and the meaning at once,
Selfish and lonely,
I,
When it's me, I am everything,
When it's you, I don't care,
All for one, and one for one,
The cart before the horse,
I,
Self-reliance, self-sufficient,
Self-effacing, self-indulgent,
Self-absorbed, self-righteous,
Self-made, self-important,
But without you,
I don't exist.

Let’s be self-reliant much
So none can con one such
Let’s keep sharpening saw
Never mind if it’s an extra
Let’s sell brain and brawn bro
Only to the highest bidder lo..!
Dependence makes one low
Much loss never before so
Folks take one for granted
As if one is never wanted
The life becomes aimless
Slavery thus overwhelms 
Harassment and humiliation
Embarrassment, frustration
Before life lacks purpose I say
Be self-reliant come what may..!!...
