Taught To Accept With Ease To Get Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

The brain-dead and dumb-downed,
Are the ones first to receive...
Their treats teased of a sweetened life.
With a quickness to rid,
Blemishes and appearances of flaws.

Those seeking truth as it is known to be,
Are laughed at when they turn their backs...
On comforts to keep delusions intact.
With a quickness to rid,
Blemishes and appearances of flaws.

While those choosing to deepen their debts...
Have been taught to accept with ease to get,
An entertainment representing true happiness.
With a quickness to rid,
Blemishes and appearances of flaws.
