Unable To Unlearn Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Startling effects of life are sparking embers
and causing a blaze to rise within, going higher
and higher, covering everything standing in it's
path.

Never wavering, following steps it has taken in
the very beginning, that being what was taught,
now not able to unlearn anything because it's
caught in memories of time.

Having spaces in tunnels below the ground,
nothing being able to change the thoughts that
will not listen nor be distracted long enough
from what they already know.
