Those Intellectuals
It would be nice . . .
If these ‘intellectuals’ would . . .
Do as they ought
Live.
They sit as if enjoying be
Nary need be
Nary present a’tall
Yeah, all of those I’d not be considered amonst
Mere as “I’m not good enough for your cult”
Of overly determined.
Burnt out.
Worn out.
Sparsely conscious.
I did once try.
But I failed in your eyes . . .
And I apparently cared what it was,
Or, did I . . .
Since, I know not the answer.
Supposedly you do.
So you tell me.
Such, is societal.
You know all,
Nary know anyone otherwise
But only, if only you allow . . .
