People Say They Do But Not Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

What is...
There left to say or do,
For anyone to have it proven...
That what they've done deserves something.

And what is...
There left to say or do to prove,
That what one does...
They are entitled too!

People flip their lips a lot.
And,
People say they do but not...
Give up sweat and elbow grease,
To leave no evidence of it.

People brag to do nonstop.
And,
Expect to get what others' got.
To be the first to get and taste dessert.
And demand it with whipped cream topping.

Just what is...
There left to say or do to prove,
That what one does...
They are entitled to do.
Like whine, complain and waste more time!

People brag to do nonstop.
And,
Expect to get what others' got.
But...
Are THEY more deserving,
Than THOSE who do the work?

People flip their lips a lot.
And,
People say they do but not...
Give up sweat and elbow grease,
To leave no evidence of it.
Yet...
The selfish get to feed their greed.
And take from others what they want not need.
To leave...
Bragging to do nonstop!

The selfish get to feed their greed.
And take from others what they want not need.
To leave...
Without a sweating to do that drops.

And what is...
There left to say or do to prove,
That what one does...
They are entitled too!

People say they do but not,
Sweat.
But yet...
Dupe to deceive to get over.

People say they do but not,
Regret.
But yet...
Still dupe to deceive to get over.

People say they do but not,
Empathize.
To deny they lie.

People say they do but not,
Sweat.
But yet...
Will lie,
To deny it.
