Decaying Pride

So you disagree in my naive point view.
To downgrade without an explanation.
Is disrespectful to any writer.
At least tell me why you don't like it.
I swear I won't object.
Who knows you might even be right.
Torn rags do shine by a misguided light.
Little objectivity, with even littler sensitivity.
Not that my sense of self worth is barren.
By far I'm not one who needs his ego stroked.
I prefer the humble way, let the pride decay.
