STUPIDITY

I allowed him to misuse me Because of my much wider wings of friendship He thought it was my reliance on his inherited intellectuality Can intellectuality be inherited?
By Basanta Lohani
I allowed him to misuse me

Because of my much wider wings of friendship

He thought it was my reliance on his inherited intellectuality

Can intellectuality be inherited? 

A big no

But he floated high

And thus thought his birth right

To treat me as his second fiddle 

Friendship he never knew

Little did he realize that he was at the margin 

And my thrust was much towards the center

From a timidity-driven aggression

He derived gratification 

By treating me as his second fiddle,

For a man who knew no friendship

But to have someone at a higher pedestal

And the rest as his second fiddle 

I could only pity on him

Basking on his timidity

With propellants of stupidity

Lifting him high and higher
