How to Lead a More Satisfying Existence

Learn to be a bigot. Take up golf. Make something of your life.
There's nothing to be gained by moaning, "Someday, justice will
Be done."  It won't. It can't. It never has. The meek forever
Will be beaten by the strong. Don't take their side. Instead,
Enjoy the bullies' feasts, and cheer each time the cruel
Triumph. Also, take up golf.

"I feel like the comments on PoetBay are becoming more and more biased: comments based on who we like, how old we are, or where we come from.

I like your poem. In a way it is actually funny, but then again isn't, is it? I think you have to be at least a bit of a narcissist to agree with that premise. But I saw where you were coming from of course.
