ARROGANT

Those who know all the answers

Walk proudly with their dogs

Happy with their joyful feelings

About how the world is wrong

They will write their message

For everyone to see

Putting blame on everyone else

Except, of course, the humble “me”

They are not the ones who

Turned the world into a mess

I’m sure they clean up after their dog

That would be my guess

But the poor are starving

And it’s not their fault

Babies are being killed

Soldiers committing suicide

Patients over pilled

Hospitals closing their doors

Bankers locking up their vault

Someone else should be doing things

To make everything right

They better hurry up, too

This world is in a plight

I say look in front of you

At the things you can control

Do everything to improve things

Even paying others toll

Leave a bigger tip at the dinner

A dollar just won’t do

Don’t want to be a cheapskate

Just because you’re a fool

Try some real thinking

Put away emotion

Keep your nasties to yourself

Stop causing unneeded commotion
