The Day When The Sitting To Listen Comes

The day when the sitting to listen comes,
Those who hadn't done it before...
Will discover a wealth of knowledge can be obtained.

Impatience with a running mouth...
And ears blocked,
Makes for poor comprehension.

And those who lack experience,
Are generally the ones...
Who believe they can not be taught anything.

Incompetence loves the company,
Of others equally ignorant.
Especially those who have gained their influence,
Through social networking and kissing tail.

The day when the sitting to listen comes,
Those who hadn't done it before...
Will discover a wealth of knowledge can be obtained.
And what has been done by misdeed and in discreet...
Will be seen for what it is to undo.
