Grit your teeth; shut it out,

there's nothing to do, why try and shout?

-

You cannot change the injustice,

nor cure the wounds with a wordy poultice.

-

But what can you do?

-

Words are useless against a closed mind,

no matter how much proof you may find.

-

Breathe in, breathe out,

just remember,

that no matter how you shout,

no-one will bother.

-

Sound your army of buzzing words; flies,

towards the zapper that fries.

-

You cannot make them see,

No matter how things may be.

-

For we have become tolerant.
