Unprepared To Resist Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Unprepared To Resist



Rarely are changes made,
By appointment to schedule.
Or debating which ones,
Are suitable to implement.

Surveys taken...
Throughout selected and picked,
Preferred demographics...
To enforce by vote,
Those changes decided...
Seldom succeeds to disregard,
The reality of change...
That occurs naturally.

Unpredictable like the weather,
Few can prepare for uncertainty
To ensure the results,
Are cemented to remain.

And many are left to disbelieve
Those changes they selected,
Were not the ones that came.
Leaving them forced,
To take risks.
And totally unprepared,
To resist them.
Regardless who predicts,
How and from where...
Those changes come.
And what can be done about them
To prevent!

However...
Many will be praised.
And commended...
For their efforts to endeavor,
The impossible.

'You can count on our promises,
The changes 'I',
And a chosen few...
Will finally make those changes
No one else on Earth,
Could ever do.
We are going to change,
Not only the climate.
But undo every decision,
God has made.'
