Conscious Chemicals: Elixir #12: "File Away The Foolery"

This is a mess indeed.
We might be here for awhile.
Okay: come down the aisle
And please line up single file.
So many different styles;
But none of them seem for me.
I'll just analyze their wiles
And place them into categories.
Let's pair exuberant "Go-Getters"
with the loudmouth Trendsetters.
They should cancel each other out.
Countless others will feel better.
Who here goes by "Ladies Man?"
You know: "The ones who get it wetter?"
Quit writing to your one night stands.
Trash those ridiculous love letters.
Where are those who claim telepathy
That "already know the depth of me?"
Here's some cents for common sense.
You can have the rest for free.
It's time to open up this clinic;
So place the doubtful with the critics,
Let the skeptical get technical
And save some room for the cynics.
Let the ignorant meet the militant.
That way, no one gets ignored.
Give the arrogant dried up sponges.
There's no room for the self-absorbed
And to all who say they're "official:"
Remove your stripes. Swallow your whistle.
Those who flash superficial symbols
Are subject to an early dismissal.
Those who choose to walk blind
Will surely leave wisdom behind.
None of them are one of a kind.
All of them are ignorance defined.
