People Think They Can Be Saved Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Giving up on the old to hold.
And importance given to them to mention.
Giving up on what had been sold,
With a giving less attention...
That allows what comes to follow,
A natural intervention.
Since...
These days are not made,
To stay...
Forever.
People can't let them just fade.
People think they can be saved.
But...
These days are not made,
To stay...
Forever.

Giving up on the old to hold.
And importance given to them to mention.
Giving up on what had been sold,
With a giving less attention...
That allows what comes to follow,
A natural intervention.
Since...
These days are not made,
To stay...
Forever.

People think they can be saved.
From what?
People think they can run away.
From what?
People think they can escape.
From what?
People think they can evade.
But...
These days are not made,
To stay...
Forever.

People think they can be saved.
From what?
People think they can run away.
From what?
People think they can evade.
But...
These days are not made,
To stay...
Forever.
Or had they ever,
Been created to remain that way.
These days are not made,
To stay...
Forever.
