Contempt
Contempt is so easy.
Everyone who is not a saint
has their own laundry list.
Mine used to include:
bankers, generals, politicians,
voters, the smugly uneducated,
the greedy, loyal employees
and so on, World Without End.
I no longer have a list.
Not because I have
achieved compassionate
enlightenment,
but because
I realized that all of
the above suffer from
acute stupidity.
The only cure for
stupidity is death.
Now I am comfortable
in the knowledge that,
while not beneath contempt,
they will all vanish
beneath the earth.
Don't mean ******* nothing.
What a load off!
