Pride


Born in selflessness
Perpetual inexpensive fuel for my righteous fire
A tethered twin arrives crying, swaddled in selfishness
Keeping me in the dark with a flash of light
Blinding and bonded
But they slice this heart in one
These adorable, extreme love children
Raised in the noble, feeling moment and arrested for life
Their gift, a polished opaque lens
I witness what I want and when
I'll seize every season
And not just the one before the fall.
