Your Point of View
you define ignorance
as people –
simply not accepting your point of view
but that is not ignorance
that is about you
in truth,
to some degree,
we are all ignorant
until we start to climb life’s tree
exploring branches
amassing life experiences
and taking chances
you define ignorance
as people –
simply not agreeing with you
but that is just about control
and a need to be right –
in everything that you do
strangely, that approach suggests –
the person who is the most ignorant is you
James Garratt – 2009
