Now I'm The Type...
Who’s A... CONFIDENT GUY... !!!

Pretty Much ALL The Time... !!!
As I’ve Been Throughout My Life...

There’s Only ONE Thing...
I’m NOT CONFIDENT With...
And That’s Getting WOMEN... !!!

But That Is Because...
of A NUMBER of Things...
That Leave Me At A LOSS...

Because Most PERSIST...
In... Trying To PLAY TRICKS... ?!?!

To Make Men Feel Small... ?!?
When It Seems Their Shortfall...
Is LACKING In Things...
That Confidence Brings... !!!

Like Having SELF BELIEF...
WITHOUT Arrogance Chief... !!!

Or Beliefs of A Queen... ?!?
Cos’ That’s EGO To Me...
And PURE... INSANITY... !?!

When We’re ALL Human Beings...
Who Are FAR From ALL SEEING... !!!!

You See... HUMILITY...
Is Something That Most LACK...
And Those Words Deal In FACT... !!!

And In Fact Now Some Blacks...
Seem To LACK Basic Things...

Like... RECOGNISING...

When It Is They Should Speak...
And Be QUIET And Meek... !!!

While It Seems JEALOUSY...
And Moving Like THIEVES...
Is Something That MANY...
Are Rocking With STEADY... !!!

While Some White People Lack...
RESPECT For Us Blacks...
When We Face Race Attacks... !!!

And Systems Now DRIVEN...
By... Bigoted Visions... !!!!!!!

of What Is... “ OKAY “...
In Decisions They Make...
That Display SHAMEFUL Ways... !!!

Cos’ One Thing They DON’T LACK...
Is A Lot of.... FAST CHAT... !!!

That They Have To RETRACT...
When They Get A BACKLASH...
From These Media Clans...
And These New CANCEL Gangs... !!!

Who USE Social Networks...
Like A PLACE To DISGRACE...
Those Who Use Certain Words...
That CLEARLY DISTURB...
These Cancel Clan Herds... !!!

But... CONFIDENCE Is...
What This Piece Is About... !!!

Because Folks SHOULDN’T Doubt...
That Those Running Their Mouths... !!!

LACK Something DEEP DOWN...
That They DON’T Talk About... !!!

Their LACK of Good Sense... !!!
That Is COMMON... Instead...
of The Type They Now Spread... !!!

Which OH YES Is... NONSENSE... !!!!!

From U.S. Presidents...
To These World Governments...

They DON’T LACK Confidence...
Or Setting... Precedents... !!!
That Cause People STRESS...
As Well As... PROBLEMS... !!!

Like They Have Now With DEATHS... !!!
Due To... Corona Trends... !?!

That Are Now Being FED...
To The Whole World Wide Web... !!!

Now LACKING EVIDENCE...
That Can STOP The Protests...
That DON’T LACK VIOLENCE...
Or The Presence of Feds...
Tear Gas And BULLETS... !!!

That Has SHOOK Confidence... !!!
In... Policing Systems...
And Governments Lead...
By Some IGNORANT Heads... !!!

Who Now NEED TO SHED...
All of Their... ARROGANCE... !!!

That’s NOT Serving Us Well... !!!
Like Heads That Now SWELL...
Because They CAN'T Tell...

That There Is A DIFFERENCE...
From Being A Head...
With CONFIDENT Strength...

To Someone Who LACKS...
Knowing When To STEP BACK...
RETRACT And OBSERVE...
Like WISE Heads Who Learn...

When It Is Their Turn...
To Let Their BRAIN WORK...
In Ways That OBSERVE...

Using... INTELLIGENCE...
That Deals In Sound Facts... !!!
Which Now Brings Me Back...
To The Question I Have...

Because OTHER Than Girls...
Who Live In CRAZY WORLDS...

It’s NOT Really A PROBLEM...
That I’ve... EVER HAD...

It Was Something I GRABBED... !!!!!
When I Was A Young Lad... !!!

Because Confidence IS...
A Thing That Bears Gifts...
When You Use It To Lift...
Yourself To New Heights...
That MANY CAN’T Find... !!!

And Those Words Are FACT... !!!

Which Is Why I’m Now Asking...

“Is It Something You Lack ?”
Fine margins keep it where it needs to be, it's arrogance and ignorance, that makes it into something ugly....

So, which one is it that you possess and exhibit..... ???
