Thoughtlessness, Self-obsessed And Crazed
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Well...
There are many who dare,
To say and claim sharing ownership.
Of similarities observed to witness it.
And too obvious to deny,
These traits we have exist.
To satisfy nothing but its enjoyment.
'Really?
And...
What would these sharing of similar traits be?'
Thoughtlessness driven by self obsession.
Until crazed.
With a protecting to defend,
Our entitled rights to be out of our minds!
'That is your opinion.'
I hope so.
Because God knows,
I have prayed on daily basis.
For another point of view.
From a distance far enough to use binoculars.
To then become relieved my visions to see,
Are purely a distortion of reality.
And willing immediately,
To give up any ownership,
Done with it to claim what others have...
Should be shared with me equally!
