Not Entertained

Your positions
steadfast and true
belong to you..

As mine belong to me
with equal adamancy..

On most issues of the day
we stealthy agree..

More than the bloodthirsty mob
consciously chooses to ever see..

Common ground lies dormant..

Buried by the fog of pointless disagreements..

So we slice each other to shreds
for the sheer entertainment value
of those who stay above the fray..

Which is where we would be
if only we had the good sense
to work out our differences
like mature adults are supposed to do
