The Importance Of Content Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

One message sent.
Marked unclassified yet urgent.
Only benefits the interest,
Of whoever 'gets it'.
Understanding to comprehend,
The importance of content.

Too many read or hear,
What they wish to interpret.
To infuse their own meaning.
And definitions to words used.
Refusing the content meant.
To then become offended.
Done to do to start an argument.
Like many who choose.
Truth to delude.

And it is just one message.
Sent to accept or ignore.
But yet only benefits,
The ones paying undivided attention to it.
With intention to understand and comprehend.
Before they decide,
Whether or not it is significant.
And if their lives depend,
On the importance of the content.
