Feeding The Ego

Feeding this ego-a full time job
Compliments and hails- it eats up
“So handsome, so rich, so wise”
But still- it wants some more
“The best, the greatest”
Unsatisfied
This ego
Wants some
MORE!

Micropoetry Month 29/30

Vivian Zems

Mum, author and dentist is how I describe myself. I love creating pictures from words. Sometimes a painter, other times a weaver- words are my tool; trying to create something beautiful. When I was nine, my dad introduced me to audio books. I was hooked. With his guidance, I fell into a world where words became life simply by weaving them together. So here I am, living out my passion- reading and writing! Enjoy the ride with me 😁😁

Indeed.. the ego can be insatiable… especially when there are enough people to pander to it. Thanks for sharing Vivian.

If we create the room for Ego, it will demand more
