The fellowship of fools

 

 

When the incompetent start preaching
A new generation of idiots are born
In this society of fools
Only absurd and insane ideas prevail

To rule this kingdom of jesters
The halfwit emerges from the morass
No matter how unwise, imprudent or silly
His whims deemed as decree are blindy followed

The smart are sidelined,
While blockheads reign supreme

The honest are shunned,
While the corrupt plunder

The able are banished,
While the loons run free

History rewritten
Science frowned upon
Religion contorted
Knowledge stunted
Hopes crushed

The fellowship of fools,
And it’s herd mentality
Is a vicious cycle
