Opinions
Sandpaper noise of idle chatter
intrudes upon my inner thoughts
Scraps flake off their intelligence
to show the ignorance they brought
How grandiose they believe themselves
in opinions they all voice
Just mere babble spoken as truth
as though their egos have no choice
Gathered in packs like wild dogs
seeking the weakest in the herd
Working to hamstring individual ideas
by using all the current buzzwords
All that is missing is their soapbox
from which they can pontificate
Upon an unstable foundation
spewing words that carry no weight
