Bad Habits Poem by Oyekake Satty (O S) Joshua

Bad Habits



An uninvited guest
Forced into my home
Became the landlord
I pay him homage
Not to be evicted

If I cultivated integrity
If I nurtured honesty
If I hadn't abhorred virtue
I would retain my home
And not be lorded

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Being forced into a position of acceptance is a different philosophical dilemma to merely encountering acceptance as the least difficult choice. You make the point well - although it is obviously not of your choice. Rgds, Ivan
