Is pride power? <br />Think of that woman <br />Smugly ensconced on her <br />Backrest. <br />She would prefer to give <br />Of her wealth <br />Than beg for anything. <br />She is proud <br />And exerts power <br />Over her beneficiaries. <br />Think too about that <br />Beautiful girl <br />Who shakes her bottoms <br />This way and that <br />On the road; <br />She woos boys <br />But does not show it. <br />She is proud <br />And exercises power <br />Over her lovers. <br />Or is it the politician <br />Who preaches prosperity <br />At the political rally <br />Where voters assemble <br />After favors received. <br />He is proud <br />And exercises power over the electorate.<br /><br />samuel nze<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/pride-is-power/
