Snob

Satire

Somewhere in my subconscious
I challenge unhealthy cultures
They circle around like vultures
Seeking carcass
From fracas
Birthed by snobs
High, mighty and snooty,
Your kindness a booby trap.
I see through the charade...
You challenge the validity of your opponent's argument...civilly
Offer them viable options, make them feel comfortable before your snobbery spews through every pore of your skin.
You casually belittle them for...
Not being like you, not being educated enough, not sucking up to you....
You go on and on everytime,
Tell you what???
I have a mental metal map of your take down strategy...
The die is cast!
I take on the responsibility to bring you down to earth where we lesser mortals thrive.
The very thought of you being humbled inspires a twirl.
I promise you will swirl
In waters muddied by you.

I am partial to this poem....grew up where I saw a lot of this snobiness, entitlement and uppityness ...and I just longed for them to be put back down to earth.
No one is better than anyone else....we all matter....

It gives me great anguish and grief when I meet people who feel they are superior to others.
It’s mind boggling and exasperatingly annoying!
As I grew older, I understood the problem.
Superiority complex is advance inferiority complex.
Thank you for sharing Jacob.
It warms the heart to know that you belong to the tribe of the few who believe all men are equal.
