Today's word is "opprobrious" ... uh-PROH-Bree-uh s ... outrageously disgraceful or shameful: opprobrious conduct. (dictionary.com)
Bleh
I wonder at humans, big and small,
Who seem to care little, if at all,
About their opprobrious behavior,
(They don't think they need a savior.)
Whatever goes on inside their heads,
Comes out their mouths or hands instead,
No filter needed with this lifestyle,
It's all presented with sulk or smile.
Part of being part of this peopled-race,
(I thought) is staking out your place,
With language graceful, despite your views,
And love for others, which you choose.
