Outside Of Those Kept Standards Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

People are looking with their noses turned up,
Outside of those kept standards they value...
For a resolution that will dissolve to solve,
Their internal problems...
With a soliciting to others to get involved.

But...
They will not come to admit,
That a witnessing of 'isolated' incidents...
And all of the conflicts they have allowed to permit,
Is a direct result of their own kept biases.

Although...
With evidence and their excuses made to show,
How truth mentioned to them will offend them quick...
It is their own kept pretentiousness that remains affixed,
Is the reason 'WHY' an increase of their own mental illnesses...
Surrounds them to exist!

'These increasing tragedies,
Are becoming disturbing and difficult for any of us to comprehend.
None of us associates with that kind of 'element'.
And most of us live within fences,
To protect our beliefs at a higher standard to defend.
We can not comprehend why 'us' and not 'them'.'

~Unfortunate it is,
Your kept delusions are not insured.
Have you tried opening your gates for visits with truth?
Reality has a way once it is faced to leave you less afraid of it.
To work wonders on minds disturbed.~
