Once Enjoyed And Invited Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

We are not in those times anymore.
When people would choose others,
For their own ignorance...
Unstopped and revolving,
Through the same turnstiles...
To explore and bore.

More people are awakening,
To what time 'today' is.
With less of them wasting it,
To let go and live.

The ones who found gossip,
Whispered from ear to ear.
Find it almost impossible...
To ignite any intrerest,
With someone equally inquisitive.

We are not in those times,
Anymore.
When people would choose others,
For their own ignorance...
To Explore increasing boredom.

And more and more,
People are re-evaluating values.
Finding it difficult,
To do as they choose...
And have others listen too!

Once enjoyed and invited,
People seem today quicker to admit...
A deeper meaning sought,
Than the routine of nonsense...
That finds them sick of it!
