Death came to feast
on pride and ill intent
Leaving only bones
—the marrow sucked dry

Well said, Kurt.
Pride is killing us.
Amen, the deadliest of the 7 deadly sins...
just know, I favourited for the title - alone
(indeed - sadly, wise Poet
celebrating all the things I lack, to affirm
that ego thwarting, anchor
I cherish most: as my fortitude of humility)
an important message/lesson, Kurt
thank you
My pleasure, thank you.
Kurt
