Rispetto - Contradictions
Some contradictions mar the nest,
and self importance dominates.
They scar the whole and fail love's test.
But selflessness true grace creates.
As Condemnation curses minds,
it deafens wisdom, then it blinds.
I'd rather cross a shark-filled moat,
than drown in seas where dead words float.
