Conduct is Crucial
Boasting better than
a model of perfection
pompous superiority
yet void of all connection
Adorning prideful ego
arrogant attitude
claiming significance
in self-righteous solitude
Alone in your conceit
ungrateful for your mercies
debasing ideals of prominence
creating controversies
Convinced of independence
but lonely, isolated
obvious desertion
by those you were acquainted
…
Virtues may differ
just as night and day
but surely my values
I cannot betray
Carrying no disdain
perceiving deepest fear
offering prayers
wholehearted and sincere
Wishing compassion
humility to embrace
with earnest desire
may you ascertain grace
