'Tis sad to think that they have never been rare <br />There are plenty of them in the big World out there <br />Yes arrogant people are not hard to find <br />And rarer by far the compassionate and kind <br />Conceited and selfish and with their words crude <br />Most of arrogant people to others are rude <br />And since they feel superior in every way <br />Respect to the feelings of others they never do pay <br />They think they are special and they think they are great <br />And their egos on them tend to over-inflate <br />In their own small ways they seem so very small <br />And like 'tis said pride it comes before a fall <br />And about old karma 'tis true what they do say <br />That we must reap the fruits of what we sow one day.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/arrogant-people-have-never-been-rare/
