Quatrain of Poor Listener

Poor Listener - you hear only what
you want to hear

We listen to dummies because
they are all around,
they pop up
at every
turn.

Our ears are open when they
should be shut, but
listening is
hard to
adjourn.

The question must be ask, why
are there so many
who have fell
through the
cracks,

Is it because those that are
talking can't hear themselves -
ignorance is born
of ear
wax?
