Shut Your Mouth Poem by Richard Noggin

Shut Your Mouth



A rule that every man should
Remember is to keep his mouth shut
I have learned this all too often the hard way
My trouble is that I am quick to form
Ignorant opinions on many topics and issues
Unfortunately I am also too quick
To speak about them
This is of course a down fall
My mouth condemns me to social purgatory
How to fix the problem is easy
Keep your mouth shut
Society really does not want to hear all the
Sides of a discussion
No, society only wants to hear its side
To interject ideas of the contrary
Only produces a back lash of emotions
None of which are kind
In an attempt to reduce the emotional distress of others
I have decided to withhold my opinions on all matters
Instead I will smile and make comments to myself
No one cares what I think or believe
So I will write my rubbish thoughts
On paper
And keep my mouth shut
