Welcome To Reality Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Hello!
And welcome to reality.
Welcome,
To what the continual feeding...
On a daily diet of ignorance,
For you can achieve.

Over here you will notice,
These folks being fed...
Total misunderstanding.
Salted to taste and bittersweet.
They love it that way.
It leaves their arguments,
Left to fight them heated...
Into the streets.
For them this is a tradition!

Now...
Over here?
These folks?
They are the 'special ones'.
Made convinced,
Themselves to be descendants,
Of royality, God and others...
Who blessed them with gifts,
To do whatever they please.
Lie, deceive, steal and corrupt.
And destroy and destruct.
If their deluded lives,
Are told to be threatened.
Their minds?
Contaminated since their birth.
And nothing tried,
Will heal to cure...
Their sickened mentalities.

Enjoy your visit.
Try not to become addicted.
Welcome to reality.
A place,
You will not soon forget!
