Orgulous

by Channie Greenberg

Often, haughty others can’t see beyond swollen bellies, puffy minds
Clogged by prejudiced beliefs; they’re limited to substandard views.
Disdain like their longstanding, indiscreet, superciliousness, inclines
Toward redirecting proper people away from rectitude.

Such solitary condescension simply summons bad-tempered associates,
While such fubsy ideations, make them feel obliged to amass contempt.
Besides, their ancient scorn, via newer disparagement, erodes disparate
Discourse, batty-fangs oppositional suggestions, silences virtue.

No companion’s ever appositely afternoonified to recuse these broadly
Arrogant sorts, these self-important prats (folks fobbing off “reduced”
Peers). Actually, it’s preposterous to weigh that pompous others won’t
Attempt continuing demeaning conventional friends intent on civility.
