In seasons past the fustian class <br />That is those who toiled and broiled. <br />Would always bear truth, <br />To the faults of their youth, <br />As an example to those that do follow. <br /> <br />But in the current climate of me <br />The self can no longer admit it or see, <br />That the weakness itself, is not to declare, <br />That a fault can be cleansed by admission, <br />But our pride will not risk that derision.<br /><br />Damian Cranney<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/be-true-to-you/
