Common Sense




Just call it an oxymoron, or a contradiction if you must ,
I say common sense is a rarity that we often take on trust,
Intelligence sadly is an impediment, to this a useful tool,
Sadly the higher their I.Q. the more inclined to be a fool,

Like money wasted on the rich, so Mensa for their brain,
They're cerebral in their processing, oblivious all the same,
Those unable see past their logic, with no experience of life,
Often marrying their own equal, another intellectual for a wife,

 Yes I am being quite satirical, you could say tongue in cheek,
 But I know why I'm doing it and see the humour so to speak,
I'm proud that I can laugh at myself, for no apparent reason,
I love poking fun at eggheads, when ignorant of my teasing,

I'm a match for any “Sheldon”, my humour easily an equal,
Some delayed action responses, setting up a another sequel,
Unable to see what I am really up to, oh they can be so dense,
Doing an Einstein theory on the meaning of “common sense”.
