Ignorance

Living is easy with eyes closed

Ignoring life’s problems posed,

Facts of life - often ugly and hard

Battled and scarred,

Don’t cease to exist if ignored-

Creates rhetoric that is flawed.

Ignorance a human weakness

Ignorance our deepest secret!

The most ignorant don’t know it

Won’t admit it - their mind unlit!

Inability to change their belief

Inability to question the reality

No wish to open their eyes

Cockiness their disguise!

Their ignorance, conscientious

stupidity, dangerous indifference ,

Makes life harder - no surprise -

For those living with fear in their eyes.
