Non Curious People
it’s not that i think i am right
but…
i don’t know,
i just despair at the prejudice
and the ignorance
the sort –
that seem to dominate our existence
people scared to look
or investigate further
or even think beyond their fear
however prejudice does not deter them
or make things less clear
it creates a distorted world view
it assigns borders
and puts up a national fence
it is funny how all this bigotry
causes to me, such offence
the non curious people
in our society, appear to be such an expense
James Garratt – March 2016
