Ignorance

A poem I wrote a while ago. In my jorunal from Nancy!

Ignorance flows through us like blood
We let it drip out in our words and our actions.
We soak it up daily
We think it is funny and we openly encourage it.
We cannot live without ignorance
It has taken over our way of life, our culture.
Ignorance is our neighbor, our friend, our family member
Ignorance lives in each one of us.
It can control you in ways that are harmful
Ignorance can run you life, it can destroy you.


Sometimes I feel like there is so much ignorance in the world and in people in my life it is like I am swimming in it.
