The Burden. The Weight Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

The Burden. The Weight



To insinuate to others,
A participation one claims...
That does not take place,
Is an intended deception.

And those lead to believe,
One has received benefits...
From one who lies of it.
Has accepted to depict,
With judgements passed...
An ungrateful, self-centered,
Ego-centric...
Has done this awful task.

And they play into the hands,
Of one familiar with charades.

And,
Of course...
Those with perceptions fixed,
Aren't told the truth since this would conflict...
With the image,
Of who has been carrying...
The burden.
The weight...
And the staying up late.

As has been the custom of one who produces...
Consistent innovative creations.
