Ignorance
With open ears and a closed mind
I basked in the sun of information
I swam in deep seas
Of knowledge
Breathed in corrections
Just to later breath out fury
Paranoid of my pride’s fate
Believed I was an island
So I wrecked every ship
In my radar
Turned off every light
You may say I was up tight
But from the comfort of the dark
That was surely right
I only applauded ideas
In my custody
Perceived everything as stupidity
