Demetrios Trifiatis Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

" THE CROWN " MY PHOTO, ©

Ignorance's Boldness

One should never be surprised

If he sees ignorance sitting on the throne of success

For it is knowledge's timidity and modesty

That allows incompetence to become so audacious 

As to insist authority's crown to possess!

Tom Cunningham April 8, 2021 at 3:50 AM Your wise words brought to mind many politicians in the uk who hide behind the veil of ignorance at the same time shouting out what a success they are. Hope you're well Demetrios. Tom Demetrios Trifiatis April 8, 2021 at 3:56 AM Not only in UK and not only in politics, my dearest friend Tom. Unfortunately, almost every field is occupied by ignorant or mediocre persons. Thank you for your precious visit and comment. Blessings! Take good care. I do the same with God's help.
