Intended Not To Be Edited Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Intended Not To Be Edited



Some things said intended not to be edited,
With a need to allow a bitterness exposed...
May come to offend those whose minds are closed.

Yet a process to begin a comprehension sets in.
With misunderstandings ending.
Even if in the doing,
A listening temporarily upsets with a regretting...
The quality of a scene over wrought with blemishes,
Sold to deny the presence of flaws...
Hidden but bought and 'assumed' accepted.
But discovered heats and demeans with effectiveness.

Some things said intended not to be edited,
With a need to allow a bitterness exposed...
May come to offend those whose minds are closed.

And sold to deny the presence of flaws...
Hidden but bought and 'assumed' accepted.
But discovered heats and demeans,
Those feeling neglected and too often disrespected.
Yet a process to begin a comprehension sets in.
With misunderstandings ending.
Even if in the doing,
A listening temporarily upsets with a regretting.

Some things said intended not to be edited,
With a need to allow a bitterness exposed...
May come to offend those whose minds are closed.
But an opening of them can begin to mend to enrich.
