Today’s word is “pseud” ... sood ... Informal. a person of fatuously earnest intellectual, artistic, or social pretensions. (Dictionary.com)
Harumph
The docent was speaking,
In reverential tones,
Of spaces and colors,
As if he’d painted alone.
This pseud knew the reasons,
The art had been made,
And into the details,
Excitedly he’d wade.
But the people who listened,
To his haughty speech,
Clapped at the end,
Filled with relief.
