I admire how one can love the sound of their voice
If I had a choice, they'd all have a show
To share the big words they seem to throw
Their depth is like paper that cuts the crinkles in my mind
When they open their moody mouth, a pretentious with support comparable to a puddle, I never fail to find
I aspire for his confidence to simply not care to critically think
Because he "knows" he swims in the pools of deep


The author's comments:

I really think in the world we live in today, there's two ends of a terrible coin. Anti-intellectualism and pho-intellectualism are both things I see often. One side hates the other for thinking, and the other doesn't have an opinion on the other since they don't think. Both are annoying in their own way, but having someone try so hard to convince everyone they are an intellectual. I don't necessarily think I am, but I don't ask people constantly if they understand the true meaning behind Creep by Radiohead.
