Verbal Dexterity

I find people often worship at the feet of those

With great literary abilities

These people who posses amazing verbal dexterity

And are advanced in profundity

And speak with a verbosity

That makes others convinced that they are academically and worldly intelligent

But I read between the lines and hear every word they say

And find myself amazed that despite all of this

They still have the capacity to chat utter garbage.

(Sorry verbal diarrhea, but that didn't rhyme lol)
