ACTUAL EXPERTS

People pose as experts
Some known as actual experts
But in their mind only as
Every utterance defies logic
Nothing good evolves unless
It pertains to them or
Their revelations
Then the world better stop
And listen and then praise
So astute, brilliant and wise
What would we do without them?
 
They point out perceived shortcomings
Expect complete accuracy on something new
But always ready with a counterpoint
The man has led through many battles
Still is considered weak if he should stumble
But the stumbling is part of his show
Opponents can smell a weakness
But there is no weakness
His methods are different but outsiders
Usually are and that is why they are feared
And never honored or welcome
 
Those posing as experts do no research
They are not investigative prone
Will accept word as it travels the grapevine
But the consequence is often sublime
They had a claim they thought was solid
It whisked away like morning vapor
And in the end there was no evidence
The witches and hags waved their flags
But all to no avail as the one they hate
Was cleared and continued to lead
While the accusers were left to eat ice cream
