Can't steal the light of glowworm,
as each has its own powerhouse,
how can another worm show brilliance
to illuminate himself in jealousy.
As victories are winners,
you can't think an alien's glory,
not able to shine among those ascends
content with a saddened fate.
Because secret of life summarized.
