Depth of Shallow People!

Never try to measure 

The depth of shallow people 

They will drown your thoughts 

In their  stupidity 

Consume your treasured possession 

And walk away with no guilt!

Stupidity can be contagious just like hate... any kind of negative people will have an effect on you if you spend enough time around them. A very wise little poem.

I had to read after that title choice*)
very nicely penned so much said in few words
to measure the depth of shallow people-that is a deep thought and I like how you worded it truly
thank you for sharing

I really like this poem a lot. It discribes so much of society which is quite sad. I love the shortness of it because it gives the reader their own opinion and way of reading it.
My only thought is the line "and walk away with no guilt" It doesn't seem the flow with the rest of the poem, my thought was to put it as "and walked away without guilt"
or "and walked away without any guilt" Just my opinion, buit i love this.

Hi Anna, thank you so much for your review and I always love a bit of critical thought, according to me it shows that the poem has been read and digested..

I appreciate your recommendation, but say if i use 'walked' it would indicate past tense..like it has happened to be once..I wanted to establish the fact that this happens all the time.. :)

[Anna]

"and walk away without guilt" is what i meant to say. Sorry im in classes while on this site, wasn't paying attention lol.

[PP]

haha..surely you don't like those classes! You are way too creative for some boring lectures !

[Anna]

Haha, Its math actually. I am still in highschool, so I don't have much of a choice lol

[PP]

awww bless..you not doing algebra are you? Still finding the value of 'x'? LOL

[Anna]

lol, algerbra is the least of my concerns lol

[PP]

hahaha..good to know that 'x' doesn't bother atleast someone

[Pete Langley]

Wow, this is a reactive statement, Prathama! I have to offer the alternative viewpoint to you....that sometimes - not always, mind you - people who appear stupid just do not allow themselves access to deep thought as a defence mechanism against guilt. The ability to disseminate thought is not at all universal, you know. P.

[PP]

hahahaha..Pete that is hell lot of creative representation under the light of proactiveness..you've done a lot of work getting to know Shallowens, haven't you?

BTW it is always a pleasure to have my work reviewed by you :)

[jacob erin-cilberto]

excellent short piece...they have no guilt because they will have no idea of what they have caused...because they just "don't get it."

[PP]

Thank you Jacob, and yes they don't get it!

[Rita L. Sev]

This poem is awesome in its simplicity! You capture the frustration of dealing with the masses, who have no idea of their own shallowness. Great write!

[PP]

Thank you Tina, frustrating of dealing with absolute crank heads!
