Skipping Up The Road Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

So many today 'had' been caught up,
In the making of impressions...
With an addressing of appearances,
That being accountable and competent...
Is no longer a reason to hold someone responsible,
For displaying an absolute ignorance to dispense.
If they are likable, entertaining and 'down-to-Earth'.

However...
Addictions to nonsense do come to an end.
And more have begun to discover,
Someone has to take reality seriously soon.
Since there is nothing funny to laugh about,
What's approaching towards them...
Grinning delightfully and skipping up the road.
