Random Poem ( String of Tanka )

Insecurity
That comes from low self esteem
Breeds hate that gives rise
To vileness and callousness
A trait to be avoided
~
Your words are mirrors
Reflecting your inner thoughts
Character is built
Snake is known for its venom
A rose for its loveliness
~
Don't compare two things
That don't hold the same value
Night differs from day
And sun is brighter than moon
Though they give light to the world
~
In this vast cosmos
Each one is a star that shines
Brighter than others
But none holds supremacy
Every star has unique light
~
I paint my canvass
With my own color palette
Using my own strokes
Don't compare me to others
I was made to be different
~
Get off your high horse
Respect is reciprocal
Do not command me
To do things against my will
You're no master to rule me
