Good News Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

The good news?
Bad news refused,
To continue to delude...
It did not include,
As many as it does to do.
Affecting everyone.
And not just a few.
Is as good as it can get,
For all involved to do their best...
To see with eyes and ears open wide,
Knowing who deceives.
With a doing to have done it,
Using an ability,
No longer to disbelieve.
And this...
Should be considered good news,
For those awakening...
From fantasies that have kept them,
Distant.
Asleep.
And as far away from reality as possible.
