Experiencing Humiliation Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Experiencing Humiliation



Without experiencing humiliation,
On a daily basis...
Has there been anyone to have won races,
Admitted to confess...
A progress they've made had time wasted.
Or for them there had been no advantage,
To losing a few races to do...
With a giving up a wish of tasting a win.
No one craving a wanted wish,
Sits to forget what is desired to dismiss.

How life to live in accepting disappointments,
Is a lessons that proves has benefits.
With it realized no one lives wanting to accomplish,
Sits to criticize and pass judgements.
Getting up from setbacks to get things done,
Is the one who has already proven they have won.
Regardless who says what to attack this fact.

Only those living lives to complain everyday,
Can be heard accusing others in every way...
With fresh excuses to make,
As a way to seek empathy for fears they can not face.
And use this as a way to defend their positions,
To validate their lack of initiative and/or absent discipline...
While soliciting others who also await to smear blame,
How it was someone else had been able to succeed...
Inspite of the misdeeds to prevent their endeavors.
Or please those regretting of their efforts gone ignored.

'What has been your biggest accomplishment? '

~Without experiencing humiliation,
Some believed would leave me devastated emotionally...
I would not have been able to accomplish anything.~

'How were you able to overcome it? '

~Keeping a crave for my wishes wanted.
And not flaunting my despair.
For whatever the reason,
There are people who love to see others defeated.
And if defeat is not seen...
Eventually their tactics are used on themselves.~

'Like a weapon someone has,
Needing to prove that it works?
Is this an analogy you thrive on with a thirst? '

~Exactly.
But there are exceptions,
I keep prioritized first.~

'Oh? '

~Many don't have to prove anything,
To be who it is they are.
Having purpose and identity is always made known.
Whether it is accepted to be liked or not.
And for them being humiliated this is a part of life.
Something that may annoy,
Those seeking immediate gratified satisfaction.
But for them knowing how their days may begin,
Avoiding what annoys becomes an obstacle course...
Expected and enjoyed.~
