Analysis of Interfering
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Interfering in the way others decide,
To live their own lives.
Has its own price to pay.
And that cost is expensive.
Nothing on Earth remains the same.
The weather, moods and attitudes change.
Although there are many,
Chosen to sit in positions of authority.
Representing choices they select,
People should choose and refuse to object.
To discover ultimately to find themselves,
Abandoned as if rejected orphans.
Left behind.
Like a disease that has found a cure.
Kept to keep effectively from spreading!
No longer to interfere,
With the natural process...
God creates and not man-made.
