I never could like them and them i just tolerate <br />Those arrogant people who think they are great <br />They build themselves up by putting others down <br />And you meet them on every Street in every Town. <br /> <br />The opinions of others they dismiss offhand <br />And not one thing about empathy do they understand <br />They hurt others feelings yet remorse never show <br />And anything about kindness they do not seem to know. <br /> <br />They only seem to seek their own glorious hour <br />And they get themselves into positions of power <br />They are leaders in Government of us that surely say <br />That we do not choose wisely on Election Day. <br /> <br />Arrogant people are or were never rare <br />And for the feelings of others they never do care <br />Their bank accounts big and their values are small <br />And they don't believe in a fair go for all. <br /> <br />Arrogant people convince us that they are born to lead <br />For power and control they have in them this need <br />And the little power we have to them we do give <br />Though they don't believe in live and let live.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/arrogant-people/
