[Old and Unreadable] Max's Thought-Provoking Poetry

Perfect Pride

7 deadly sins circulate inside of you
Yet what is sin, but greatness's deterrent?

Of all the 7 deadly sins it is the most dire
the perversion of the faculties of dignity and holiness transpire
Dangerously corrupt selfishness and narcissism
Believing you are better than other's limits

We live in a society indoctrinated to think all of us equal
But if that is the case, how do we explain the 'good' people
The ones who saw far above the rest
The ones who bore entitlement to victory like a crest

They have the pride in everything they ever accomplish
Be it a failure they learned from or a victory so complex
You sit lamenting over the page in front of you
They are living a life of pride, while you live off their residue

So accept the most important admiration: Your own favour
And now with your pride, you can be your own saviour
