Ignorance Is Bliss

It never ceases to amaze
How little people know
Of themselves 
Their thoughts
Whether it is right or wrong
Their actions
What they are saying louder than words
And what they are speaking
What they are actually saying other than
The words coming out of their mouths

Such that when a third or
Even second person looking at them
Sees the actions performed or 
Hear the words said
They immediately understand
The stupidity and absurdness 
Of it all

Yet the person who is actually doing
Or saying the things 
Have no idea of its stupidity 
And wacky nature of it 

With no self reflection ever
Like a person with stains on their face
Having no idea about it
Never having seen it 
Never suspecting it
Not knowing what mirror is
Or knowing what reflection is

Going about their business
Doing all sorts of foolish things
Making all sorts of preposterous statements
Pretty much proclaiming to the world
Ignorance is bliss
