Absurd Commendation
Award is a reward
for a job well-done
by people who worked
for the good of fellowmen
Award is a commendation
for a service well- rendered
by people who truly gave it
for the betterment of others
Yet most who were given such accolade
were those who marched in the front line
acted as leaders who are egoists manipulators
extract the efforts of subordinates for own interests
Such people hungered for praise and rewards
wearing masks of humility as philanthropists
love to be called as heroes who fight for a cause
yet have ulterior motive for self aggrandizement
Better look for people who work in silence
who truly give their best to enhance humanity
men and women who do not seek reward for self
but labor for the common good of the least privilege
Those who intent to get rewards
are kind of people who are arrogant
who can’t work without expecting an award
beware of people who brag about commendations
