Religion of Self

Religion of Self

A Poem by icaros13

_

"
Me, My, Myself, and I
Is that all that is important?

Losing Myself
Space for Myself

My needs
My dreams

My goals
My talents and abilities

Accomplishment for Myself
By Myself, only Me

Existing only for self and
Self-gratification isn't living;

It's masturbation

booyah! In your face kind of poetry, sometimes it feels very much like that doesn't it? In a me,me,me world my my my is all we know...but if there is only yourself to depend on for survival, it's important to have I think, so one could feel comfortable with giving. If we share more , give more , more comes back to us, its the rule, but when a body is starving it is difficult to hand the bread over, how many would?
