Of pride an overdose
dense, too bellicose?
but would be grandiose
to try diagnose

Trying to philosophize
on the meaning of existence
is a frill that ossifies
best focus on co-existence

Try just belong
let’s not be headstrong
“To Get Along”
ought be our theme song

Listen closer to bird song
until our common swan song

ossify = to become rigid or inflexible in habits, attitudes, opinions, etc.: a young man who began to ossify right after college.
