The First Rule :: the Mabini Sonnet
It is good to know, you follow a rule
by which you live by and stay in that path;
but can you overlook the aftermath;
holding self in high esteem, it's not cool.
Why you hesitate of win, forget how doubt
other to perceive your actions somehow.
Relation breaks for pride, don't act like fool;
give credit to them; how long you'll befool?
Don' realize, why it should hurt your pride,
why you refused to talk, preferred to stride;
But, it's worst relationship blunder you'll
make; Why want to make excessive pride as
your lifestyle, must feel the drawback it has;
Show them respect for their feats as first rule.
