SOMETHING I LOOK AT

Let me flatter 

The art of flattery

if at all I am to master

let me master it to flatter

my conscience to rule over the mind

love over hatred and jealousy

modesty over ego and vanity

reason over idiocy and irrationality

Let me flatter 

the inner me to remain away from all that is inimical to man and his development, respect individual dignity and

work for equality and fair play of justice

Let me flatter the man within

to get over the beast 

to find the real I

to be in complete harmony

with the inner me

and the world surrounding

To get the best out of me

let me flatter and tame 

the wild and irrational 'I'

to remain within limits and 

allow the man in me to shine and flourish,

live and let live
