BRAGGARTS

braggart

I

“Cars are nothing

Money is nothing

Living is nothing

Let love flow”

Braggarts bragging below beings’ bend

II

“I’ll give you stars

Do you want the moon?

Maybe you need the sun

I could charm darkness for you”

Braggarts bragging below beings’ bend

III

Braggarts are brats

Who live in fake dreams

They love the glitters

But lack resources

Help them climb from the ladder of lies

Into the reality of truth

Just a simple Ghanaian trying to find the best in our society. I may be fun, I may be interesting, I may be funny, I may even be foolish or intelligent, but it is all based on the mood in which you find yourself. I believe our minds make us who we are. Know that, pain, no matter its 'unbearability', is transient. Unburden or delight yourself for a while in my writings please. And all corrections, advice and opinions are welcome. Know that you are the king, queen or royal on this blog. :)

This reminds me of a native american story or poem, i think its Apache. in which man is born from the stars and asks the eagle to give him sight, then he asks the wolf to teach him how to hunt, then he asks the bear to teach him to forage, then he asks the owl to give him wisdom, and the owl refuses. Each of the animals then ask the Owl why he did not give the man wisdom, and the owl says “Because his heart will never be full.”
