Vigilantes mundum ardentem

They'll always get caught in their own flames.

Some people lack in wisdom.

Some people just won't listen

Some people's crimes will glisten.

Cause some people abuse a system.

*

Some people try to advertise

The works of others they plagiarize

Let's hope the find the prize

Of their own ruination, their own demise.

*

These criminals don't act smoothly

They navigate too obtusely

They steal too profusely

Webs of lies, made to loosely

*

They're not spiders, cause they're way to annoying

Like mosquitoes sucking blood, Your hard work they're enjoying

Draining us of energetic time, good names they're destroying

Yet, they'll be back at it again, their schemes they're employing

*

Still, like them, with sin we are not without

We've all had to learn rules of accreditation, no doubt

Alas, these days social media's all about chasing clout

Yet, our own works and achievements is what we should tout.

*

The hard work we've done in time, itself it will speak.

The climb begins, but where will You peak?

The journey of greatness will harden the weak.

Once done climbing, there's more mountains to seek.
