They have no doubt they know about it all
They are well-informed; others’ knowledge is small
On every conversation should they make an impact;
They have the authority to invent and deny facts.
They are eager to win every kind of argument
For out of dozens, they have the best judgment
Their views are superior, their opinion’s too good;
They would impose it on others, if they could.
They are the learned ones, they show the right way
All must be silent, and listen to what they say
They attach slight value to others’ speech
If it doesn’t coincide with what they preach
Ah, we do not give ourselves a chance to grow
And cause our minds to become so narrow
As to proclaim ourselves know-it-alls,
When it is better to know nothing at all

You've really captured the moment!
How often do we hear those select- intelligent ones, always commenting with "All I know is...."
It is a shame, many of them stay like this for the rest of their lives.
You wrote very accurately, ""All must be silent, and listen to what they say"
And I would add (with your permission)
Not only wishing to be heard,
but for others to obey
This is really a well written write!
Thumbs Up!

This is so true. There's so many ignorant people everywhere and it totally drives me crazy! People become so ignorant that they get racist and so so nasty and I'm not even sure they realise it.
This was a great read and flowed really well. :) |
