Snarky

Today's word is "snarky" ... Testy, irritable; short.

Testy
It's just malarkey, all that is snarky,
And it's everywhere I look, I swear.
People making mean remarks and faking,
As behind backs, true facts are laid bare.

Where is the ability to act with civility,
And to find resolution with kindness?
Why the need, to dispatch with speed,
One who's frought with thoughts you must bind?

Wouldn't a little more time in the middle,
Let one another get heard?
Then maybe some, would finally have fun,
And we'd all fall down at the Word.
