Anti-Intellectuals

A poem inspired by the pompous speeches from Sarah Palin and Sean Penn.

I 'm intellectually superior
you're mentally inferior
I m all knowing
You are not knowing
Everything I say is the truth
Everything you say is false
Eveyrthing I do is right
Everything you do is wrong
I'm self-righteous
You're full of vices
I'm egotistical
You think with your testicles
I'm open minded
You're closed minded
I'm good
you're evil
I believe in God
You don't believe in God
I'm an intellectual
You're  bi-sexual
I'm on a top level
You're at the bottom level
I'm an angel
You're the devil
I'm horny
You're suppressed
I'm happy
You're depressed
I'm sane
You're insane
I love sex
You wait until marriage
I'm straight
You're gay

I got laid

You masturbate
I'm smart
You're not
So what do you have to say?
Nothing. I don't care anyway.

Hello daniel
This is perfect awakening and social study in verse form!
You see - what is to blame is dualistic concepts and the vertical hierarchy.

Elite groups have power to make opinion and sell it as the absolute!
But there are no absolutes.
Their failures we know by chance when the lack of emails emerges their lies, greed and false personal morals.

Well done. My new favorite of yours!

Smart, direct, sharp...
You really show their attitude to things, and their supersiliousness.
They think that they can set the agendas. People like you and I would be glad to disillusion them...if only we thought them worthy of our time.

I love the picture. I like Aqua Teen Hunger Force.
But, anyway, I really enjoyed this poem. It has a good flow, and I like the contrasts. Great write!

Use periods, commas and other grammatical tools to show us when to pause, when to stop reading. In the technical school of poetry you don't stop at the end of the line, you read until the author places something to tell you to stop. A lot of people stop at each line, but a lot of people don't. Adding periods will make it a definite point, everyone will know you was us to stop there, or pause with a comma. This is interesting, though. I enjoyed it.

This piece was so vivid and powerful. The feeling of animosity and prejudice between different kinds of people, whether it be through intelligence, religion, sexuality etc is unbelievable and this poem captured all those emotions quite perfectly.

I really liked the poem! :D xxx
