lesser mortals
justifying their
secret hopes that underneath
the wholesome facade of the
richer, classier and smarter,
lie a living carnage of
wretched character and flawed personality.
this is a self-serving attribution
phenomenon
because it is just difficult
to believe
that we don't belong
to the better part of the world.
and if you think about
it realistically,
you would know that
accusing every seemingly perfect person
of being privately imperfect
would be equivalent to
conferring
every seemingly imperfect person
sainthood.
damn it, yes,
these people are real.
these hateful thoroughly
perfect people are real.
