while others may take delight
in playing small
and superficial nonsense
you and I must stand tall
and live with magnificence
we are born to elegance and grandeur
this is not about money or net worth
this magnificence is our truth
we crawled from the swamp
and now we walk, not shuffling
and apologetic
but glorious with head held high
but don’t get this mixed up
with the posturing
of a self important ego
that is something else
completely
