Prepared To Deliver The Goods Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Can we and could we,
with a should...
Do much better?
Many say they wish to,
But few choose to prove it...
As if commited to doing this as a duty.

Can we,
Eliminate the seeking of escapes,
To leave behind the perpetuation of hatred...
Taking place to erase faithfulness?
With every difference.
With every excuse made to make.

Noe finding comfort in spaces,
We once thought protected...
To never disturb the peace we keep.

Can we...
And could we with a should,
Do better?
And...
Can we,
with a must...
Be always prepared to deliver the goods?
