don't trigger a quiet man

by AGDP

some people have no regard for privacy
i joke with other people
because they admit to their foibles and follies
in public domains and by doing so
i respect them
that is how comedy persists to exist

but to make falsehood, lie,
and most importantly not admit to such;
i cannot accept this from people despite the nature of human beings
some individuals are simply insolent
because they themselves
have not had a single piece
of gratification in their lives
