Offended By Substance Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

There are more people today,
Offended by substance to berate it.
And even more who defend,
Their delusions to keep highly appreciated.
With them to rate as better depictions,
Of realities that don't exist.
But kept popularized to fantasize,
Their preference to refuse a truth to admit.
Or the presence of it,
To acknowledge truth makes no excuses.
And today many find this unacceptable.

'WHAT DO WE WANT? '
~Our delusions protected.~
'AND WHEN DO WE WANT THIS? '
~NOW! ~
'WHAT DO WE WANT? '
~More delusions manifested.~
'AND WHEN DO WE WANT THIS? '
