What Point 'Is' Being Made? Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

What Point 'Is' Being Made?



What point is being made,
When one attempts to be specific?
With a correctness directed,
To set an example from lessons taught.

What point is being made,
When one is accused of being egotistic?
As if one with an ego,
Wishes to have a kept integrity disgraced.

What point is being made,
If one sacrifices...
To have others use devices,
To diminish what one gives.

And what point is being made,
By those who choose to deceive?
Only to reveal themselves...
Of having mental dysfunctions.
To then make excuses for hidden insecurities.

What point is being made,
When one attempts to be specific?
With a correctness directed,
To set an example from lessons taught.

What point is being made,
When one is accused of being egotistic?
As if one with an ego,
Wishes to have a kept integrity disgraced.

What point is being made,
If one sacrifices...
To have others use devices,
To diminish what one gives.

What point is being made by this?
If others believe,
They should live lives restricted...
Within boundaries and set limits.

What point is being made,
When the choice to choose...
Is to degrade others.
And ensure their minds stay this way.

What point 'is' being made?
When people rather live their lives enslaved?
Ignorant as if this is a gift?
And self-depreciate to belittle others and not uplift?
