A Vehement Loneliness

Arrogance, it would seem,
is a most agonizing death
rehearsed vehemently during life.
Let no man's epitaph be:
"Died fanatically preserving pride,
with mortal wounds to the left and right hemispheres
of disdain and conceit,
following a martyrdom of self-imposed isolation
from all lesser men."
