Not Yet Ready Or Prepared Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Not Yet Ready Or Prepared



When good deeds repeatedly go ignored,
By those who oppose them...
With beliefs,
To accomodate good deeds done by others...
Has to first meet requirements,
Of an approved mediocrity...
Eventually leaves those of good deeds to believe,
A doing of good deeds with intended content meant...
Can easily offend those who oppose them,
If a level of comprehension...
Remains to stay comfortably in minds not yet,
Ready or prepared to accept...
The meaning and interpretation of ignorance.

'Now that we've taken a few steps back,
The time has come for us to take leaps...
With it done moving forward,
To prevent a continuing of an ignorant pace...
That makes no progress at all.'

~WHO are you calling ignorant?
Just because our actions speak for themselves,
Does not mean you have to mention them...
As being ignorant.
Your approach is in need of less honesty.
And more sensitivity with it shown to know,
Where we have been as a people.~

'You have no idea,
Just how 'sweetened' my comments have been.
Even though I comprehend to understand,
Your need to identify yourself with the past.
Hopefully,
We will all 'overcome' such ignorance done.'
