When the Circus Comes To Town

Not my circus

Not my monkey

Polish proverb

People around you doing things you cannot change?

Repeat after  me

Decisions being made that are just plain silly

but you cannot change them?

Repeat after me

You have tried to be the voice of reason,

The prompt for ethics

and no one is listening?

I am listening

Repeat after  me

Their drama may be THEIR greatest show on earth

But you have better things to see and do

and that's poetiquejustis

Oh, the joys of those who do not
    follow the advice of the wicked,
    or stand around with sinners,
    or join in with mockers.

Psalm 1:1
