Pride and Prejudice

Up from the sky he saw
Upon the corporeal
He was filled with superciliousness
Of the immense power in possess
He was epicenter of supremacy
The mine-field of ascendancy
He was the blazing SUN
He was akin to none

He restricted the day
He proscribed the night
He could make all shiver when dull
He could burn alive when blistering bright
He ruled the world
He was the blazing SUN
He was akin to none

He looked down from the zenith
Overflowed with self-pride
His ascendancy getting him prejudiced
Of underestimating the other
Stagnation with smugness
Had made him forget how to flutter
He was the blazing SUN
He was akin to none

Out of nowhere came his insignificant foe
The minuscule rival called himself CLOUD
Blithely he covered the scorching sun
The incontestable authority was on a down-run
The minutest of all
Had dwarfed the tallest among the tall
He was still the blazing sun
But no more was he the HUN
