Self-Examination Poem by santhana louis

SELF-EXAMINATION


I am just a small man
with usual weaknesses of all kind
and I try to understand all others
as each one, has few riches superfine

I put my self on guard
Not to injure anyone so hard
by the slip of the tongue's lancers,
untamed uttering flying as bouncers

being neutral, has its own advantage
courtesy and politeness proves one
as a good personality, cutting a clear edge
among all our acquaintances

though I am aware of all these goodness
I am still a starter, lacking in fineness
before, I do preaching for someone else
let me double-refine and keep myself cleansed first.


Louis Santhana
