Intellectual Attention W***e

Intellectual Attention W***e

A Poem by Indra's Child

You motherfucking Narcissist,
Sucking off your mind
The chip on your shoulder must weigh a lot,
But your nerve endings are blind

You use your own intellect,
To attack people on queue
It's only to make yourself feel
Like the epicenter's you.

To us, the irony is obvious,
But you can't see through your mask
You're a false prophet and you've lost it,
Yet you continue through your task

You're a fake intellectual,
As plastic as they come...
Breaking under the pressure
Of only one someone's thumb

You'd kill for mere attention,
Because your ego fears it's death
Awaiting every argument,
As if it were the last breath

You've been ostracized, it's clear
From your own community
Maybe you feel alright now,
Hiding behind your screen

Like a spoiled kid alone,
Lashing out at other kids
The weight of your own pettiness,
Won't wait for you to give
