Your Ignorance

For The Vocal "Things You Can’t Say Out Loud" Challenge

By Mike Singleton πŸ’œ Mikeydred Published about a year ago β€’ 1 min read
A Nightcafe Creation By The Author

Introduction

I do find challenges like this a little annoying, because they are likely to be filled with profanity-laden lines that will be given Top Stories and Challenge wins, but I will avoid them like the plague. I am fine with profanity in the right place, so I suppose the Wayne County song is perfect for this sonnet because it is full of the "F" word, so that is where all the swearing is in this.

I have worked for a few people and organisations like this, and was glad when I was out. I am sure some of you have too.

This is the aggressive entry, but there will be a gentler, melancholic entry to follow.

Your Ignorance

πŸ‘ΏπŸ˜‘β˜ οΈπŸ–€πŸ’₯🀐πŸ’₯πŸ–€β˜ οΈπŸ˜‘πŸ‘Ώ

You Know Your Shouted Ignorance

Carries More Weight Than My Knowledge

Your Lot Prides Its Incompetence

While I Learned Science In College

πŸ’₯🀐πŸ’₯

You Say That You Know I Am Right

But You Shout, You're The One In Charge

You Always Have to Pick A Fight

When I Am Right, You Disregard

πŸ’₯🀐πŸ’₯

Shouting Loud For You Is Enough

Then, When Things Go Wrong, You Blame Me

I Solve The Problem, You Say Tough

I Spell It Out But You Won't See

πŸ’₯🀐πŸ’₯

You Have The Money, Hold The Keys

When You Fall, It Won't Be With Me
