Thinking myself invincible,
I tried to break the world.
Instead, the world broke me.
Surprise!
Sometimes, to learn humility
requires taking a beating.
The pain doesn't matter;
what you learn through it does:
be wary of pride;
you are not as strong
as you imagine;
no one is immune
to reality.
Getting my ass kicked,
the only way for me
to know these things:
the price I always pay
for being a slow learner.
