Sold On Ridiculousness Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

There is nothing like feeding the mind by reading.
Or paying attention by listening.
And connecting these elements with observation.
There is nothing like it!

There is nothing that addresses comprehension,
Better than what has been mentioned.
But then again...

There will be those who will waste debate,
To satisfy themselves and their pretensions!
With discussions about the quality of the approach delivered.
And IF it 'twas handled with appropriate etiquette.
As relating to the current season.
And whether or not...
The credentials of the messenger impressed.

'All that just to pay attention to something? '

I've seen some folks sold on ridiculousness!
Based upon what color they were...
And how they were dressed.

'I'm willing to bet that's how this mess was created! '
