Dismissed Significance Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

A dismissed significance,
As to who is more reliant...
And dependent on benefits,
To receive yet perceived...
No longer needed.
Is an action taken,
By those blinded by 'hype'.
And not reality to see.

Open gates to then close,
With belief a throwing away...
All the keys.
Leaves those within walls,
Created...
Eventually realizing,
The ones dismissed...
As being insignificant,
Are those denied to deliver...
Needed supplies,
To the ones who isolate...
Themselves inside,
Within closed and locked gates.
Celebrating with clouded eyes,
Their own demise that awaits.
