Save That Energy Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Why are you now upset?
You were the one to say
Those concepts were outrageous.
Now you are enraged?
Let me share this perception...
To add to other deceptions,
About life and how things in your world
'Should' be!
According to your teachings.
And those throughout your life,
You have been told to avoid.
Let me say this...
To conflict with your dismissals.
You now being enraged,
Will not change the outrageousness
Of these days you chose back then to ignore.
Save that energy!
You will need it when reality arrives,
At your doorstep!
And it will not offer you options!
Discount that outlook if you must.
But these are observations...
Not given previews at an amusement park!
You are going to be in need,
Of much more then remembered quotes...
From a book of correct etiquette.
I recommend the use of common sense.
IF you have any...
And know when and 'how' to apply it.
It comes without intructions!
