Turning up your nose will only cause you to drown.


Poem Artwork

isn't for weak-willed
neophytes who, for one minute,
question the superiority of their
self-appointed position.

the armor is
bullet-proof to humility,
opposite opinion,
and silly common sense,
hiding in the abstract wasteland of,
only I see.


humans have a right to snobbery?

mountains tower over
mole-hill minds.
oceans swamp
pools of bigotery.
canyons engulf our
shallow-ness.
rivers humor our
pissiness.

snobbery looks only down
to see inferiority,
never up to see.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) That's someone I don't tolerate well with. I say "hello" for meanness because they're too good to talk to otherwise. You say it enough, they remember...we're all human.
Peace&Grace,

Rusty, I firmly believe that you know a number of the SAME people I know. Nothing else could explain it. The way you present it, is classic. Keep the chin up and your enemies will never know......

An excellent write Rusty
I've come to know a few
for now, they call themselves friends
I guess until, They're exposed
yet they are so transparent
Thanks for sharing
Well Penned Rusty
Peace be with you

This poem is a direct bullseye hit, Rusty-friend. Snobs are among the worst people out there. I especially applaud the line, "hiding in the abstract wasteland of, only I see." Brilliant wording there. This poem is a keeper!
Love,
CJ

"Mountains tower over..."
This stanza is beautiful. Please integrate the poem. It can be gripping, and thought-provoking more than it is now.
