Prideful Stories

The speaker is talking directly to people who are full of themselves-"pompous" and "symbolton" suggests empty or pretentious showiness. They're described as "walking flesh," just ordinary people, but they act as if they're above everyone else-hence the line, "Why do you look down one's nose?" Then, the poem questions if they're really greater than the divine-challenging their inflated self-view. There's a warning that this pride will be their undoing-"fan the flame for your own downfall." The speaker says, "false humility," meaning they don't have true humility but just wear a mask of it-so their pride is heavy, a burden that will take ages to lose. The poem then ties this arrogance to emptiness-like a "bottle of rot gut spirit," meaning it intoxicates and destroys their sense. In short, pride blinds them-stopping them from seeing reality-and the speaker hopes, harshly, that one day they gain wisdom, even if it takes a painful process. So, it's really a call to self-awareness, to shed false pride, and to embrace true humility.

Enjoy this poetic story about black women's obedience and control over themselves. These poems describe and explain the history of black people (women in specific) that have been ruled as disobedient to their culture for the people they truly are on the inside, not just the outside.

Florence Paige's life is nothing like the one she had dreamed of for nineteen years. Locked away in her father's large estate for her whole life, she had held to the hope she would somehow be free from the pressures of her position as an heiress as marriage seemed further and further away. But the power and money hungry men, harboring unspeakable secrets, had other plans... After Florence is traded and married off for valuable information, she soon learns that her husband is a ruthless man with a dark past, and their lives have always been connected since the beginning. She is left to trust only herself as the spider-web of secrets and lies slowly unweave before her, and her husband's true colors begin to show. Is he the truly the monster that took her for money? or is there more to him than meets the eye? ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Note: This is an unedited FIRST DRAFT and a work in progress.

The only time you will see Blair Whitlock mad is when it comes to academics. And when Ethan Ashford gets involved with her, it always comes to academics. Yet he still couldn't stop. And neither could she. This isn't the usual hihi-haha academic rivalry. This is a book where the protagonist's feelings turn into pure hatred, not only towards eachother but towards themselves too. This book goes to show what can happen when pride and love mixes. Because pride is something that will choke love even before it has the chance to breathe. But love is known to be the solution to everything. Will that saying be applied here too? . . ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Note from Author: Thank you so much for taking time to check out my book!! I really hope you'll enjoy this academic rivalry, and please feel free to leave thoughts, ideas or constructive criticism in the comments, but please remember to stay kind. I'm a beginner at writing, and I know the only way to improve is to just, you know, write. So that is exactly what I'm going to do :D My goal is posting 1 chapter each week or every 2-3 days depending on whether it's vacation or not, since I'm still a student, but I'll try to be as quick with the chapters as possible while still delivering quality product. <3
