Craze For Praise

This poem is about man's madness for praise and its limits. It also gives a view of its effect on human nature

Craze For Praise

Good Man, Bad Man,
All are starving,
Not for food, but for praise,
Vision of Only and Only
My Craze

I should be praised
For everything I do,
All for me
Nothing for you

My Profile Pic is cute,
Status is cool
If u don't praise me,
Then u r a fool

You appear divine
But become a devil
Who is jealous of all
Turns good to evil

Which is this force
what is the source
Feeling of Importance
Is unique in scores

Put off this burden
Open the doors,
Be good to yourself
And normal for mores

As race for praise,
doesn't end till death
What ends is,
Your patience, peace and self respect

Hi! What I like about your poem is that it speaks truth in a way. We all want to be acknowledged, and for some people, that is their world. I also liked what you did in the third stanza, whether that was on purpose or accidental. I think the poem still needs some polishing but I really did like the subject matter. :)

Thanks dear for reading. I also feel polishing is required in the poem
