Stupidity and Ignorance
James Vincient Johnson 1952 (Algoma WV)
Stupidity and Ignorance
Security sit here jobless
Another school shooting occurs
How vivid is the progress
And ignorance of our leaders
You refused care to the insane
You prefer the untrained
You misuse and abuse us all
Stupidity is still not a wakeup call
Innocent lives taken by you
While children safety suffer
While you think of only yourself
Why show stupidity and ignorance
When will you become otherwise
Instead of listening to all our cries
Our forefathers laid firm ground work
But ignorance have invaded home turf
See I am not a number ten priority
Security has always been number one
Why is so many of security out of work
Oh, still yielding ignorance and stupidity
Nothing will ever go right again
Unless you take control of the spin
Unless you take care of our children
And rid the ignorant and stupid sin
About this poem
A wakeup call. Security will be a valuable asset in any game.
