Accentuated With Skulls Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Accentuated With Skulls



Negligence.
Thoughtless incompetence.
And a total disregard,
For the wellbeing of humanity.
Would be enough to awaken many,
From a nightmare screaming.

However...
This is not a horror.
This is an observation.
Becoming to bore,
Lots of people to ignore.

Dangerous is the road.
Recommended to be followed.
By those in positions of leadership.
Hoping the results,
Of ignoring common sense.
Or make attempts to be conscious.
And aware of the signs of danger.
Flashing in neon everywhere.
Adorned and accentuated with skulls.
Could possibly be,
Warnings not to dare death in the face.

But no!
Anointed with self rigteousness.
And the power of self serving selfishness.
Hope they do and anticipate,
To negotiate with wealth to have and offer.
As a way to distract,
Facts and the truth.
That will allow them free entry.
With lifetime passes,
Into the Land of Delusion.
Where denial is everlasting.
And kept fantasies forever LIVED!

"Okay.
Have it your way.
How many in your 'party'? "

-Well...
A few are liberal.
More are conservative.
And others identify themselves,
As independents.-

"I am referring to the 'number'.
Here...
No one could care,
About political affiliations.
Or religious beliefs.
Here...
We welcome diversity of all kinds.
Soon...
You will find that to be true! "
