Analysis of Blessed With Time To Discover
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
No one is born to reflect perfection.
And perhaps,
That is is why...
God has blessed us with time.
To discover this fact for ourselves.
So many these days are made to believe,
What will never be true.
Yet collectively we accuse and blame others,
For whatever it is...
We face to go through.
What is next?
For the ones made blinded with their minds,
Confused, isolated and confined.
And...
What comes next?
For the ones who protest,
Their kept ignorance is best.
If left to defend this ignorance,
With weapons to protect.
Who can say what is next?
For those who take steps,
Making a frosting taste better...
On a faked baked cake.
Leaving others to feel,
Less than human beings.
Abandoned.
Although loyal to their proven faith.
And...
On a daily basis told to hear it said,
Their lives are controlled...
By those who claim,
They were born immortal.
And superior to obey.
What comes next?
A species destroyed.
With this belief to keep,
All living things God created annoys?
Is this what comes next.
To the ones blessed with time to discover,
Themselves and not others...
Had been the fools man-made!
