When our ignorance willful
then a shortsighted stance
As excuse may be useful
still a poor traction prance
Any sensory input
if contradicts our emotion
experienced as hard put
obstacle to own promotion
A most treasonous act
to let into own domain
logic, justice & fact
so we repel with disdain
thus ducking away from Reality
while cowardly spouting hyperbole

-willful ignorance = the practice of intentional and blatant avoidance, disregard of facts, empirical evidence and well-founded arguments because they oppose or contradict our own preferences or beliefs
