Walking In Circles Poem by Professor Poetry Hound

Walking In Circles



You know how some religious people are so silly
that they actually think anyone who disagrees
with them must be the devil in disguise? How
preposterous is that? They actually think there’s
an invisible guy lurking around trying to trick
them. See, they know the devil exists because
there always seems to be someone trying to trick
them, so it must be the devil because that’s what
the devil does – tries to trick people, and that’s
how they know he exists. If you point out that this
is circular logic, they don’t understand you, and
so they think you’re trying to trick them and
therefore you must be the devil. You have to ask
yourself how these people are able to walk and
talk at the same time.

You tell em! A very witty look at a ridicilous problem in society. As far as I'm concerned, if Satan lives anywhere, it's in the angry mobs these idiots seem to form themselves into every time someone disagrees with them. Hugs Anna xxx

I've been wondering whether you are just plain Poetry Hound, and now I know. This circular poem, circular thought, and circular belief makes me feel like I'm going in circles. Very funny...but very sad, too. Raynette
