Ask
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Ask for the truth and reality to see.
Faithfully.
And it will be revealed as is to be.
To leave and no longer wonder,
If what has been revealed...
Too many refuse and can not accept,
A conflict in their beliefs.
Kept defended to protect their interests.
Done to prefer,
Living pretentiously.
With a consciousness limited.
To Impressions made everyday to address.
Although will claim,
God has all the answers they need.
Whenever God comes and seems to agree,
With their hypocrisies lived and worshipped!
