Sipping On Champagne Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Sipping On Champagne



Ultimately,
A truth concealed will be revealed...
When the telling of lies no longer flies by,
The heads of those convinced...
Enemies on distant shores threaten their interests.

As some campaign to maintain their gains...
While leaving those to fight themselves over,
Entitlements lost and at their cost...
To keep the rich getting richer!

And the ones hoping they can float without a boat,
Will not notice the yachts popping up all over the place...
Ignoring their screams for help.

'Why can't they hear us? '

~Who says they can't?
Or wont.
Who had been convinced to jump overboard,
With beliefs the enemy approached?
And...
How far will this 'joke' be provoked? ~

'Well...
I'm not laughing.'

~Why not?
Those you have supported are in hysterics.
Sipping on champagne and at your expense.~

well said! Cheers! The third world can develop on its own without any help from the first world. Could the first world survive without any assistance from the third world? Guys, Prepare yourselves to do your own work!
