Vanity Addictions Poem by azmat naushad asif

Vanity Addictions

Rating: 5.0


The vanity creeps upon me
Twirled around addiction
It feeds on
Appreciation,
Approvals
And affirmative nod of heads
Has an unsatiable appetite
Always hungry for more
More admirations...
More acclaims...
more...More...MORE
A word of caution
From intellect
To sentiments
Ego as crutches
Will only make one limp
Beware:
The vanity just needs
A single prick
To gore itself
The sentiments then, issued

A WARNING:
Spit it
Before it swallows You
