Hello Again

Impressive as it is, your ignorance
Is not complete, but just as well might be,
As wide as summer skies, deep as the sea,
Spectacular as gross incontinence
Supported by unceasing flatulence.
I know you didn't want to hear from me,
But here I am, facing your poverty
Of knowledge, sympathy, and competence.

We're neither of us harmless or benign.
Benighted? Sure. Bemused? Yes, and beset
By demons, dogs, and dimwits. We're in debt
And in denial, hoping for a sign
That something will turn up. Here's where you shine,
The feckless optimist. I've brought a net.
