Difficult people

Pushing and shoving and trying to get past;
Thinking too slow and moving too fast.
No sense of morals, no room for shame;
Always seeking someone else to blame.

Car horns and shouts, and a cuss word or two;
What are we kind people supposed to do?
A polite gesture; a welcoming smile;
They grunt and they grumble all the while.

Perhaps if more people were to all act the same
These difficult people would have no one to blame.
Perhaps they would tire of their disgruntled ways
And offer more sunshine to brighten our day.
