Pleading On Their Hands And Knees Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

The test dissected has been done to select...
From those who have chosen materialism to digest.
And those who are able to feel and see,
The anguish created by these misdeeds.

And the ones who have depleted others,
With a disregard to feed their own greed.
Are the ones who will suffer the most.
Pleading on their hands and knees...
To be freed of the guilt and restlessness.
That will haunt their mentalities for all eternity!

The ticking and the tock,
Has not stopped on this clock...
For them!
They have regrets,
That come they have not met!
Not-just-yet!
But that hour approaches upon them.
And that stinging done...
Promises to stun!
