Unique Similarities

The same action taken.
As a defense mechanism.
Using a right to protest.
Following the rules.
And obey them as stated,
Documented in a democracy.
Has its limits.
As to who, whom and what group,
Is perceived to deliver...
A free speech...

Perception

Little difference there is between,
A perception to have it.
And an opinion asked to give.
Although no exceptions are considered,
When listening to anyone...
Entitled to express,
How they feel about anything...
That matters to them...

Teachable Times

Live we do,
To admit or refuse the proof to excuse it.
These times to find needing to define,
Does not take...
Rhythm to rhyme poetic lines.
Nor abstract prose,
For anyone conscious.
Awakening from an overdose,
Of fiction to delude and...

Unacceptable Activities

Many can not accept,
The performance of their own activities.
That represents,
A reflection of a kept negative mentality.
To then become offended when seen,
Doing things to others to deny are mean.
Even videotaped repeatedly,
On wide TV...

To Lie With Ease

In the year of 2024.
The increasing of deception to accept it.
Has become easier to expect.
Like no other time before.
With a receiving to hear more.
Even behind locked doors.
Whether or not the doing is whispered.

Although the truth to...

Hi, Edwin...your comments remind me of what I use to experience on another poetry website. Now, today? I make sure what I write is done. Then close out my submission to Poetry.com. I've also changed my password a few times as well.

I lived on Perrin Beital Road. Between 410 and 1604. The bigger loop surrounding San Antonio. Back in the 80s.

Hi Edwin. Don't allow your creative process prevent to stop what this 'force' chooses you to do. Through your poetic revelations. Edwin? You and I both have been blessed with a gift. Know this.

Hi, EdwinRayTanguma. I appreciate your comments on 'What Is Meant To Intend'. Since as a writer, I am not swayed by religious or political beliefs others may or may not have. I can only admit being aware and conscious of current events. Events that should to all us conscious, be serious about how humanity is affected by them. I am a writer. Powerless to offer remedies or solutions. I comment on what I observe and see from my perspective. Whether or not my point of view is accepted. Like those who may read my submissions to Poetry.com...living in an environment with problems existing.
This permits and provides me with incentive. And, I do the best I can to respect beliefs that are not my own to attempt to influence anyone. However, I do encourage thinking as a process that, hopefully, promotes understanding. Thanks again. Lawrence

Hi. So much I thank you for your comments. It seems that many refuse to see or accept to believe the severity of these times we live. Too much it is assumed. That these occurrences are isolated events. They are not. Especially when we live in a country in which 'children' can obtain and use weapons creating havoc and violence on the streets where we live. As if this increasing madness of sadness is a sign of how sick this craze has become to be normalized! Thank you, once again, alanswansea18. Your comments I appreciate very much. Lawrence

Hi Nebula. I like ur name. Thank you for ur comments. I have been writing in several forms & different formats, mostly to do to place more emphasis on my chosen topic. Some get 'it'. Some 'don't'. That you 'did' amazes me. These days, many take their faith and religious belief with the same feeling as if shopping at a mall to catch a bargain. And then to thank God! Thanks again. Have a great day. Peace/Blessings, Lawrence
