A poet with an ego

Thinks he has something to say.

But in reality

He's just getting in the way.

A poet with an ego

Sees his words as powerful tools,

And thinks his name

Will be listed among who's who.

But a poet with a heart that is open

Gets out of the way

And lets the truth speak.

(Note - the use of "he" is generic for he/she/me).
