What You Do Not Know

Though you live as a good person compassionate and kind
Who to performing good deeds is only inclined
Not everyone will be saying nice things of you
But what you do not know will not hurt you happens to be true
It is known ruthless people lack in common sense
And enjoy hurting feelings and causing offense
Poor at making friends and good at making foes
It does take all kinds one does have to suppose
To the insensitive with their word usage ignorance is bliss
That what goes around comes around the point they do miss
Their worldly view to say the least is very small
When they themselves are offended they do not like it at all
What you do not know will not hurt you as a truism remain
Why this should be so does one need to explain.
