The Gift

There are so many who lead us In positions of power we love to cuss, Who went to expensive private schools But turned out nothing but fools, Whose spouses think they are bores Yet in power they lead humanity into wars. Like the wandering wind they blow They argue in their power and crow At other's wisdom, wisdom they are bereft of. Of the common people they have no love They are mad for the power and the reward, They money stashed away they hoard To send their sons to the very private school That failed them. But who is the bigger fool? For wisdom is lacking in those who vote On whose very word they love to dote Wisdom is that gift a rampaging mind Does not know and makes such fools blind.
