How you manage to acrobatically juggle double and even triple entendre's within the contraints of the contest rules amazes me! There are those who "claim" to be religious but tend not to think humble pie was ever baked for them... That is hypocrisy, truly. Then again, (clever you)--if one is truly religious he would never think of himself as a "self made man"--so further food for thought! Good luck in the contest!--Karenina

Hi - Pride cometh before the fall.
You hit the contest requirements on the head - and conveyed so much wisdom in so few words. We all stand on feet of clay. When we get a big head we truly do get top heavy - and come crashing down. And Everyone's watching.
Great job,
Relda

Comment from Darlene Franklin
This poem falls gently on the ear, but I'm not sure how the last two lines relate to what comes before, except that hypocrisy will lead eventually to humble pie? A good moral tale.

You got it the customer of religion is a strange creature they promote morality and truth when living a lie and sometimes just sometimes when they fall on their own sword its nice to serve them a slice freshly baked .... lol.
Comment from Marilyn Lou Berry
Love that illustration accompanying your poem. Last 2 lines are effective and punchy, good effect. Lesson(s) learned, but not too late hopefully! Strong contender in the contest, so good luck!!

Hello my friend,
Nice five lines poem with a correct 2/2/5/7/5 syllables count. The presentation is okay but I don't like when the pictures have words...it takes away from the poem... it's distracting.

I thought this one added to the message and I got another one on its way at some point.

Yes humble pie is free though it's not very palatable to the ego.
Well done with this short write. There's even slant rhyme for an additional poetic touch.
I wish you the very best in the contest. This is an intriguing philosophical entry.
