What We Need Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Many despise being told,
What it is we need.
Collectively to hear it.
Or suggested to recommend,
Individually.
Although will unify in protest.
To request and expect attention.
Without acknowledging,
Listening with it done...
With a wanting to comprehend.
And understand,
To what to them has been repeatedly mentioned.
Will eliminate any reason,
For them to get upset.
When told, yet again...
What is needed only they can do.
But without effort to endeavor,
For them the proof...
Continues to allow,
Excuses to make for themselves.
