Cloaking Intelligence

Do you ever feel so joyous
in your own ripple of being

Blissful thoughts in coyness
around your cycle of thinking

Words are a colorful brightness
animated
 in laughing amidst a meaning


Then people become envious
Their behavior invokes reeling


Being treated as ordinary
A spray to be used vocally

Showing one track vulgarity 
Envious of intelligent reality

Doing them unthanked favors
they wouldn't  really believe

Thinking you can't be all together
Fragments of their egos deceived

Ignoring their jest of behavior
Is the sign of your sweet relief

Inebriating the chalk eraser
of their misguided belief

Cloaking intelligence is a favor
Used on those who need reprieve

You challenge us on this one. Intellectually ability without people skills is a curse for some. My children may not be quite at the top of the tree but they have good careers through people skills. Hopefully when my son finishes university the same will apply. Regards David from NZ

Intelligence is people skills. There is more dimensions of intelligence than society measures. Intelligence tests will catch up in 100 years or so.

You got it. Dumb asses talking at you like your the dumb ass because they don't recognize that you are way more intelligent than their dumb asses are.
