So you think that you know everything?
You are The Golden Child with bling?
You feel you're the only one- the saviour?
The only one who can heal & cure?
You believe you're Soul Mate & gift?
That you can only solve & uplift?
That you are the only expert here?
That your words & actions bring cheer?

Mr/Ms Know-All, Expert Kindly note-
Your Addictive Lure can cry & gloat!
No Surrender by those here before you,
Yes, before you even had any clue!
They are working Restless for the cause,
Vested interests & fame are your sauce!
Dark Desire, Black Magic, & crafty ways,
Can't convert lies to the truth you chase!
You are the one who has spoilt & maligned,
The Volcano, Firefighter, & karma won't be kind.
They'll soon Knock Out- you're such a disgrace!
Time will reveal the Know-All Experts' real face!

"People who think they know everything are a great annoyance to those of us who do."

This poem is dedicated to- all those selfish, ignorant and arrogant people spoiling efforts for the truth, by spreading lies, and creating ruckus, utter confusion and establishing misinformation.
Do you know any such Know-All Experts who create chaos by their expertise? What is your message for them?

Cleverly done! I think we've all encountered those know-it-alls--who usually don't know as much as they think they do. And they are annoying! 😊
ReplyDeleteYou had someone specific in mind in this write. Hope she/he gets to read it. Too many like that.
ReplyDeleteIt is annoying (especially when I may have been seen as that myself)
ReplyDeleteOh, what fun! Good on you for avoiding romanticism in favour of something so much more bracing.
ReplyDeleteAs Merril says - clever stuff. I also love the Asimov quote! Nice write 👏
