No Revolutionarian
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
No revolutionarian.
Not to prove nor believe.
Or seen to be bestowing good deeds.
Nowhere around to be anywhere found.
Yet one declaring himself the one who can fix,
What's been broken into pieces.
As he turns his back on this.
Repeatedly declaring,
Innocence.
While mocking nonstop a way of life,
To pocket from supporters who endorse...
His creating of disorder.
Quick to blame he does of others,
Who have intentions to destroy democracy.
And them to be the cause and reason,
Why crime has climbed higher...
Than his own criminal activities.
To accuse the doing of it all,
On ethnic diversity.
And those fearing the threat,
Of having their delusions replaced by reality!
No pioneer or 'revoluntionarian',
Would limit their minds...
To an accepted to protect blinded nonsense.
And then defend a dependency,
To remain consciously mentally crazed.
By allegations and accusations made,
That false images created to idolize them...
To worship and represent a fictioned life.
Has begun to ruin their 'Christian' values?
Not the other way around heard to hear.
Or found with evidence and proof of it.
Although...
If heard to hear around to find it found,
Are these false statements made...
Coming out of the mouths of those,
Skilled in the field of deception.
And having had the ability to lie.
To observe and witness who it is destroying,
A way of life to have believe...
People disenfranchised.
Oppressed and suppressed by apartheid acts.
With no evidence of having control,
Over their own destinies.
Could possibly claim to be threats...
To those who freely express,
Their racist beliefs.
Division to implement.
Bigotry to address.
Done to do as if whenever the time is right,
A conference of deities can be called.
With it to demand and insist,
From Mother Nature, God and Others...
Popular in religious circles.
To appear and explain as to WHY,
They are unable to follow along...
With the wants and wishes of the ones,
Self anointed with a self serving...
Of importance.
Too obvious to go ignored.
And this is expected to be explained.
At the earliest convenience to prioritize!
'Uh...huh?
What?'
'I'm just saying.
If there are folks living on this planet.
And with certain kept beliefs?
Shouldn't they be the first to put,
Their beliefs to keep and faith to use...
In action?
To prove the evidence of it?
And...
Done with a k.i.s.s.'
'With a what?'
'Keeping it simple...stupid!
Oh.
And I am not necessarily referring to you!'
'But...
I'm the only one here.'
'Is it necessary? Or by choice?'
