Common Sense Is Dead Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Why did this happen?
And could have any of this...
Been avoided to prevent?

'What has happened to common sense?
And could the benefit of having it to use,
Make all the difference? '

Why did this happen?
And could have any of this...
Been avoided,
To prevent?

'What has happened to common sense?
And could the benefit of having it to use,
Make all the difference? '

Why do you insist on repeating,
What you have already said?
Isn't it obvious,
There is something else that is missing?
The use of common sense will not make a difference.
Common sense is dead.

'Well...
That's unfortunate.
If common sense is dead...
Why do you continue to question,
What is happening?
If everyday you question reality,
Common sense is not the only thing dead in your head.'
