People With Inflated Egos

People live with an inflated ego,
They think they rule the world.
Their little souls are covered with snow,
The world is just a shooting gallery.

School is no longer an assistant,
Its functions are, alas, lost.
She stupefies children on purpose,
So that they can think little.

People talk but don't listen,
They don't want to understand others.
It's more important for them to be the best,
How to help those who are scared.

Everyone tries to bite their neighbor,
To get above it yourself.
This story, as feat told
And received a medal on behalf of Himself.

Don't tell me what I can't do,
How do you know whether can or not?
You only see your limits
And just jealous, looking after.

I always walk away from people like that,
There's no point in talking to a dumbass.
They live only in their stupidity,
And they don't know who to cling to.
