The arrogant ‘I’



When you don’t want to be

bothered to understand

circulating your judgments

Asking,

With a superior tone

“Who you think you are?”



~*~



The insignificant “me”

The one you are not

Used to hear from

The one

Who needs to remind you

All the times,

I am here,

And I do matter.

the one,

Who need to use all

The possible “I”s

To transcribe for you

How it feels

“You” how "she" perceives



~*~



From humiliating the “I,”

You get your satisfaction,

To prove who you are?

It bothers you so much

When I think?

You'd rather think for me

Decided on my behalf

Insert in me all your fears

To ease your insecurities



~*~



The true arrogance, "Sir,"

Was your question

In the first place.
