ego

hard to please
hard to get
harder to appease
oh! bloody puh-lease!

entity best locked
buried
concreted

progress
or
some illusion of it
neither is
plausible

the last battle
with this
entity
ended
in an armistice

hence
progress
lay in no man's land
between
the fences

the soothing
potion
for the battle scars
the words
- story of my success
is like a Baobab tree
with branches for roots
and
evergreen fruit
