Kept To Delude And Fictioned
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Continue I do to stay amazed.
By the rapid changes made these days.
Leaving people living still refusing,
To accept they are not immortal beings.
With choices prioritizing them to decide,
What affects the lives of others.
As if their decisions,
Are cemented to deny...
Who does what, when and why.
On an Earth God has created.
Inhabited temporarily,
By pretentious, tempestuous creatures.
Blessed with life given.
Yet perceive to believe themselves to be,
Untouchable and immuned from a reality...
They keep kept to delude and fictioned!
