Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Self Inventory

A self help book that I came by

Said important was honesty.

If dishonest, then find out why,

By taking an inventory

Really honest about myself,

Needing to thoroughly exam

My dishonesty, shelf by shelf,

For truth how dishonest I am.

It was hard but I did the job,

Found truth in me that was not nice,

Counted dishonesty a gob,

But found virtue to stop this vice.

I learned my lesson so I took

Back the shoplifted self help book.
