Common Sense
Common sense is not common
You serve others with a bowl that is overflowing with love and generosity
And they return the favor with a bowl full of piss
You strive for peace, but receive hostility and animosity
See, common sense is not common
You have no moral obligation to Jimmy or Jessica to communicate
But since meekness is instilled in you, they flip the table and....communihate
See, common sense is not common
You help out somebody when adversity is weighing them down
And when they are on their feet, they don't practice reciprocity, if they do, it's done reluctantly
See, common sense is not common
So, Lord have mercy... As this world has no mercy
Everybody is living a dark life, like the chocolate we eat
Thus we lack proper nutrition: which holds friendship, brings success, gives us common sense which isn't common, and which brings love in times of war
Since common sense is not common, logic concludes that common sense is wisdom ONLY for the wise.
Majority are despised and are surprised, that this poem has them mesmerized
If common sense was common
You would communicate and not communihate
But since most of us are not wise, let us cease using common sense and start practicing the golden rule
Not through fear or karma, rather through love and respect
Since common sense is not common.
