To Me Empty Vessels

Though nowadays 'twould seem they are no longer rare
I never do find them that easy to bear
Those who tell everybody of how marvellous they are
And of their great job and their family and of the size of their car
Into self promotion in quite a big way
And though many do look on self praise as okay
To me empty vessels do make the most noise
Whoever said that one first was very wise
Why they even boast of self to strangers I do wonder why?
To them the word wisdom could never apply
No different to their mates at the local pub
They ought to call themselves ' The Self Promoters Club'
Of hearing them boasting I quickly do tire
As in them I don't see anything to admire.
