Incompetently Competent Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Incompetently Competent



What it is that I may believe,
That has you and others...
To disagree with opinions made.
But...
That which is,
Up in all faces these days taking place...
Is a doing some debate.
Can not be a doing done consciously.
By those sitting in positions of leadership.
To do with a purpose,
Those not in the know perceive...
As stupid and ignorant.
However...
There are very few chosen who achieve,
Success.
Doing what they do,
Accidentally.
To then have their every decision,
By others to approve.
Who are also incompetently competent.
With this to accept and share,
Between themselves...
A doing to continue what it is they do.
Done regardless of who calls them idiots.
Since labels on them to be placed,
Will not stop what they do.
Or prevent what they choose.
Whether or not the effectiveness,
Only provides to deliver,
Benefits they get no one else does.
And that is the game,
Few know they have been picked to play!
That's it.
Any questions.

"Uh...
Yeah.
What about our interests.
And promises to us made."

-Good question.
You have asked of us to listen.
This we did.
And promises we made were sincere.
But...
Do you know how difficult it is,
To keep fingers crossed behind your back.
Hoping God will forgive lies to tell.
With a doing to keep a straight face?
Many of you voicing your complaints,
Should try that sometimes.
That to do is not easy at all.
And smiling too?
What else do expect?
More miracles? -
