Inspiration: Poem relating the extreme conceit of some people. We all should be on guard against worshiping the idol of self and demanding others to be converts. Based upon Proverbs 18:2 – Before destruction the heart of man is proud, but before honor is humility. ~TRP~ 

I create poetry under the pseudonym of “The Refined Poet” due to the style of my writings. I do not write from a place of angst, frustration, or inner turmoil. My poetry comes from biblical, thoughtful introspection and consideration of various topics while respecting the many forms of the poetic genre.
