Don't pretend around me.
I don't have the time to waste on pretence or falsehood.
Drench me in your guilt.
Let honesty be the crime you commit with me.
Bare your shame and use contempt as your shield.
Do not lie about your humanity as if you are all good.
We all are unjust, disgraceful and cruel.
The only true crime is believing your faults are insignificant.
They are what shape your greatness.
Guilt breeds generosity.
Shame forms ambition.
Contempt creates principles.
They are your motivators and teachers.
