Kept Just As It Is Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Kept Just As It Is



Revealing who sits in pits with demons,
Is currently being exposed to those...
Who have accepted being ignored and opposed,
And this has not pleased...
The deceiving teasing done by demons.
With hopes their tactics used attract,
The ones who have chosen not to play tit for tat.
Knowing those who sit with demons...
Would love to do exactly that.
From shadows where they creep with a seeking to attack.

However...
Those who show they know the ones,
Sitting in demon pits to glow...
Aren't disturbed by them one bit.
with a preferring their distance kept just as it is...
Left effective and less reflective of images protected.
Regardless if deeds done they do are not respected.
Since those ignored have accepted and expect...
Those sitting with demons in their nests object.
And will always do their very best to test...
The ones ignoring them from wherever they may emerge.

a thought provoking poem. Whoever seem to be powerful, accepted and elected, are the ones, rule and lead our life politically, religiously, economically and many more. when the same elected people become notorious, we would become voiceless, as everyone need to survive and we are unable to fight against the system, which is momentarily under their control and the people on the street like us exhibit herd mentality, which is also not wrong..we have many options to control such issues politically such as 'no confidence motion', but the people in power are more powerful to control the political and administrative machines, so we are forced to wait for the next election..Thank you for sharing!
