There you sit
upon your throne
acting like the almighty
himself. Unlike you
he does not judge
nor claim to better.

You’ll say one thing
but  in private its
totally the opposite.
You ridicule those such
as myself and you don’t
even know them nor me.

You look down upon them,
yes even me from your high
and mighty throne like we’re some
kind of parasite.

I pity you for the
only friends around is those
who are like you  yourself….
A  self-righteous  snob.

Thank-you Jo.

I needed to let off steam and put my feelings
into words what I was feeling.

Thank-you for the comment.

Yes, I have known people like that - they're best avoided.  Hope you feel better now.

takes all kinds to make the word go round, perhaps without the smugness, there wouldn't be need to realize how blessed we are?  

Good write but sad for the person your writing about...perhaps someday she/he will learn?

Yes I do feel better getting out of my system.


Thank-you LeeJ for the comment too.
Someday is a long ways off for the person I wrote about.

Far too many like this in the world, but fortunately they are outnumbered.
