You Should Get More Involved Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

You should get more involved.

'In the doing of what? '

Well...
In the uh...er...uh...hmmm.
The...uh...

'I've already done that.
That's why I've stopped wasting my time.
Now I do something far more satisfying.'

That sounds interesting.
What is it that you do?

'I leave people looking for escapes,
From reality to charade delusions...
Alone.
I find it fits my personality.
And besides...
I got tired of debating on what side,
Of a nonaccepting of a reality I was on!
And the choices remained unchanged.'
