I've learned one piece of truth
Within my old, benighted niche:
If ignorance was currency,
We'd all be very rich.
For people traffic in it, daily,
Proudly, even so --
The more they talk or type it seems
The less they need to know.
But self awareness is a very
Scarce commodity
In times when just reflecting is
A noted oddity.
A thing that's oft repeated
Isn't thereby proven true;
But if being an echo is
The thing you want to do,
Then welcome to today. You'll fit in fast,
And be surprised,
How when you say the slogans,
You are taken as
Quite wise
