And when you look at
a bowl of people
you step back
from what you see

It may sound a bit arrogant
but truth often is.
Most of the people
pardon the offence, are a bit idiotic.

Not talking about
the statistical number - that’s another issue
Many of the others
don’t have their brains burdened enough

They believe what they are told
and if it lines up with their instincts
they never let it go
even if it hurts others

People don’t think differently
unless you rub their instincts a wrong way.
Extensions of them leads to racism, lgbt and such
natural or acquired, I think.
