Unified Comprehension Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Unified Comprehension



Change?
There is going to be change.
Drastic, immediate and effective.

The kind that comes to stay.
Unseasonal.
Traumatic.
Like the kind of change,
One suffers through...
When going to school for the first time.

The kind that breaks and shakes,
Like an Earthquake.
A shocker that roars in like a tsunami.
To leave folks stunned.
With no where to run....
But endure.

Change?
There is going to be change.
Drastic, immediate and effective.
That's for sure.

With one exception!
Very few will be asked,
To debate the quality of it.
And no one will be exempted.

Total, complete and thorough...
Will be the experience.
Many will welcome it.
While others will be heard complaining,
As they sweep to keep up...
With assigned chores.

Change?
There is going to be change.
Drastic, immediate and effective.
The kind that motivates,
With an understood dictation.

'That sounds like 'socialism'?

I doubt if there will be any sounds at all!
However...
There will be a unified comprehension.
Descending from the Oval Office.

President Obama,
Intends we all become familiar...
With the concept of pride!
He plays not upon our delusions.
But we will manifest his vision.
