Quatrain of Smelly Ideas

Smelly Ideas - listen wisely

Mostly you should listen to those
with whom you agree but
on occasion listen to
those you do
not,

It is not wise to ignore those with
different opinions, but
their ideas may
have to be
fought.

Listening to those with whom you
do not agree will not make
you a better person,
not even
wiser.

But occasionally a nugget of wisdom
will come forth from a pile
of ideas that are
mostly made of
fertilizer.
