Blarney ... Stoned

Today's word is "blarney" ... BLAHR-nee ... flattering or wheedling talk; cajolery.

Stoned
All I hear is blarney,
And though I know it is
I can't do a thing about it,
As it goes by with a whiz.

Who makes all this stuff up?
What are they trying to do?
Is there purpose beyond profit,
In their charismatic crew?

I want to see things clearly,
Not covered in a fog,
I think the splinters in their eyes,
Resemble blinding logs.
