Poetry Pleases: Rhetoric

Jackie Mallinson's poem resignedly recogises the harder path to follow.

And still they come up
Even to the umpteenth generation.
Minds not inoculated.
Raving on rhetoric,
Whipping up.
Eyes aslant with proven logic.
Is their job any easier?
Some tired, wistful eyes
Register –
It’s all a lot harder than that
