I Do Not Feel Like Poem by Francis Duggan

I Do Not Feel Like



I do not feel like praising your culture since what your culture stands for me does not impress
They judge people by the suburb they live in as well as their postal address
Those who believe in a different god to them they do not see as equal though each to their own one must say
Those who do not respect me for my beliefs respect to them i cannot pay
In many of your ways of thinking you do seem as one who is small
You believe on a fair go for your own sort but not on a fair go for all
You claim that you are a good person that to your god you live true
But you look on those as inferior of a different religion to you
You say this is part of your culture that you are of superior kind
Arrogance and ignorance does seem to thrive in the closed to light mind
Yes with the saying of ignorance can be bliss one surely does have to agree
What do i have to like in the person who feels superior to me?
To the ways of your culture you are one who does remain ever true
But your quite narrow in your ways of thinking does not make for a likeable you.
