(and) ...With Kept Consciousness Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

You...
With a kept consciousness.
Have selected to pick,
Your leaders.
And,
You...
With a kept consciousness,
Approved of their appearances.
Reflecting an image.
To idolize that represents,
Those historically created.
And depicted in high definition.
Clear to identify on wide screen TVs.

You...
Declaring sanity.
And undisputed consciousness.
Continue to accept such incompetence.
From these leaders to not expect.
Yet...
Their incompetence,
And shown to prove effectiveness of it...
You remain to blame on others.

Although...
Your fading quality of life,
Still keeps you wondering why...
A reality you wish,
To believe it lived to realize.
Can not exist,
In denial to delude...
Fiction to animate it,
Is difficult to produce...
Truth to touch and life to breathe.
Or can eliminate a reality disbelieved.

However...
In an alternate Universe,
Anything to demand it and get...
Could be a possibility.
For you.
And anyone else.
With such a kept defiant consciousness.
Unable to be convinced,
Living reality as it is...
Has an abundance of benefits!
