In Chapter 30, Poem 12 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet explores the themes of arrogance and the resulting isolation. The metaphor of being made of 'felt' (a coarse fabric) while acting like 'satin' (a luxurious fabric) highlights the foolishness of possessing a false sense of superiority and pretending to be greater than one is. The poem warns that aggressively pushing others away and destroying relationships out of conceit ultimately leaves one completely friendless and isolated in the world.
