In Denial Waist Deep Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Stuck in denial waist deep.
And so many still refuse truth,
Is capable of releasing them to freedom...
With a finding themselves happily rescued.
To remove them from their dilemmas.
A condition they continue to pray for exits and excapes.

They say with their kept faith,
Those walls, fences and deadends...
Built and structured to protect them from fears endeared,
Will never be replaced.
And truth to face...
Has nothing to do with it.
