the virtue of selfishness


Psychology is very good
But that isn’t my major
Per-chance I am psychic
Why would I want to read your mind?

Intuition is a gift
One I happen not to have
If you have something in mind
Pity, but you have to say it

Humility is such a virtue
But who ever said I was virtuous?
The last time I was docile
I must have been a toddler

The world is full of  perfect people
Of which, I’m not one
I might be a lot of things
But I am no hypocrite

Pretence is a skill
One I have no desire to acquire
Being a wolf in sheep clothing
Just isn’t my style
