Mount Superior
Mount Superior
I find myself
Wondering
How rarefied the air
Must be
On the moral
High ground
Is it altitude
Sickness
That causes
Blindness
Inability to see
The possibility of pain
Caused
By the stones of
Judgement
Rained down on those
Who don’t look
Like you
Who don’t think
As you do
Who don’t believe
As you do
Who don’t live
As you do
Many who climb this mountain
In order to comment on the
Ubiquitous cyber world of news and current affairs
Lighten their load
By leaving their true identity
At base camp
Some obviously have
Multiple degrees
They are psychologist
Health expert
Philosopher
Law maker….
This plethora of degrees
Equips them
To share their hard won
Expertise
Under intellectually inventive
Pseudonyms
During their gruelling
Years of training
Many miss the odd subject
Compassion
Humility
Empathy
Strangely
Moral principles
Appear to have
No place on
The moral high-ground
