No One Thinks Of That Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

No One Thinks Of That

Rating: 5.0


When a momentum is set,
To dilute one's good intentions...
It should be made clear,
To those preparing to get into this gear...
They should make sure they do not,
Cut off their noses to spite their faces.
Or bite the hand that might be feeding them,
Under the table.
When someone's good intentions are gone...
So too go with them their much needed connections!
And of course,
No one thinks of that...
While stabbing someone else in the back!
Especially when egos of those in small towns,
Lack any hints of common sense!

It is difficult to share with another the process by which opening a mind takes place. And how that is recognized. My recommendation: Do not force anything upon your mental capabilities 'anything' your mind is not prepared to comprehend. And, of course, that would mean a broadening of it has to take place. That process develops by a willful abandonment of one's comfort zone!

Lawrence: Isn't this character assassination? If a person cannot stick to the subject being discussed, then they turn and begin to bring up things you have done in the past, or character imperfections in order to 'win' the discussion. Happens in small towns... I will write a poem about that soon! Expressed well but I may have missed the point-this is what I thought of when I read it. Thank you, and keep writing.
