What Annoys You

Many things annoy me 
fools are top of the list 
you know when they make
same mistakes time and again

Or  spout utter rubbish
just for something to say
no meaning or purpose
just verbal diarrhoea

Injustice of any form
really gets my goat
like a hapless victim
bullied for being different

Or a cat or dog being kicked
just because their owner
is taking out their frustration on
something that can not fight back

Theft is another one that annoys
people work hard for what they have
only to have their homes invaded
their treasures stolen or smashed

Belongings defecated on, why?
usually it is jealousy or plain spite
people who misuse positions of power
these and many more really get my goat.

A nice rant on frustrations, I would have to say most of those are my annoyances as well. To name a few.
