Why Do You Avoid The Truth? Poem by DM W
Why Do You Avoid The Truth?
O you seem to live in fear of knowing the truth!
You claim that you are a scholar, so why do you
Keep on watching and believing the mainstream News?
Quite frankly, I do not thing that you have a clue,
About what's really going on all around you.
O I think you need to study much more and do
Your research, before spouting out all your half- baked
Nonsense. Listen to what I say for heaven's sake!
You think you dwell in the light, but it is the dark.
Your views remind of Alexander Pope's remark,
That a little learning is a dangerous thing.
Just think of what gifts greater understanding brings.
A well written and beautifully delivered broadside of a poem directed to shall I say a blip on a person's radar. An unlikeable blip that is. A no prisoners poem ending on a fine Alexander quote. It's a thumbs up 10++ Dominic and now to copy and mail them off to The House of Commons and No.10.
Yeah To know and to do good at first have to learn exactly, truly...... little learning is always dangerous! yeah
