To Be Or Not Be Concerned
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Anyone who has repeatedly said and it shown,
The act of respecting others...
Is not to them known.
And ruthless they are without laws to obey.
Or follow to display,
Having comprehension...
With common sense effectively used.
Even done to pretend it,
As 'something' connecting...
One's mind to give relief,
To those supporting and publicly endorsing...
This kind of mentality.
The cause for concern...
Has become a diseasing illness ignored.
Few, if any, will admit understanding,
A thought understood coming out...
Of a mouth of someone so distant,
From truth and its reality.
But yet...
This hypnotism,
Has millions of people disbelieving...
One they wish to have as their leader,
Has addicted them to fiction...
Deception,
Betrayal, bigotry, fraud and treason...
To perceive,
Are qualities that best represent...
How they feel and see themselves as well.
What other way can this evil be explained?
With an ego driven thoughtlessness,
Fed by self importance.
A self importance,
Having no regard or concern for humanity.
And chosen as the spokesman,
For the vacant and mindless...
Addicted to power and superiority.
With a hopeful diminishing,
Of a severe self inflicted feeling of insecurity.
And...
Made to accept and believe,
Those of ethnic diversity...
Have intentions to replace them.
Quicker,
Than this is done to do to themselves!
As the evidence and proof of it,
Continues to scream loud and clear...
In their ears, eyes and faces!
Not to know who to fear.
Or why they've been made to feel threatened!
Sickened.
By their own aspirations.
Speeding faster than a bolt of lightning,
Towards identifiable left to abandon...
Insanity!
