Analysis of Blood Sucking
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
What is it that known blood sucking leeches,
Are defended against...
To protect them from?
With a giving of support to endorse.
It can not be,
Their proven ability to destroy humanity.
Or a ruining the quality of life,
Created to fiction and delude reality and truth.
Just for the purpose to deceive, corrupt...
And pretend what isn't to quicker eliminate,
False beliefs.
In the hope fresh excuses to make,
Are forgiven by those disguising themselves...
As deities picked chosen idols who reflect,
Leadership qualities attracted to cesspool.
Crime and the stench of it to spread,
More profitable decadence.
Its filth.
And the effectiveness this has,
On diseasing to sicken...
Unprepared mentalities too blind.
To fight against the unconsciousness...
For being congratulated for accepting,
A following along down a wrong path...
Warned to have disastrous outcomes for all!
Many have been made these days,
To have their blood sucked.
And their butts volunteered to kick repeatedly.
As if a pledging their allegiance and loyalty,
To thoughtlessness and its benefits.
Promised.
Yet nowhere swirling around,
Down into a cesspool to get.
'Correct me if I'm wrong.'
Okay. About what?
'Shouldn't that cesspool be swirling around,
Clockwise and not in the opposite direction?'
