No Accepted Reason
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
There can be no accepted reason,
Why people insist to commit...
Wrongs done purposely upon others.
With a doing of this to permit.
There can be no accepted reason,
To choose and pick...
Those innocent living their lives,
With a doing to intend to victimize them.
There can not be an accepted reason,
Why the escalating the rise of hatred...
Should anyone consider could mend,
The division of broken relationships to end.
As if a prize awaits to declare who wins.
There can be nothing started.
Whether it right or wrong,
Done to do to others consciously to believe...
Without an apology heard to hear it come,
From everyone to say and it on both sides...
Accepted to receive.
Although time it will take,
To make understood to understand...
Peace to have and live it as is,
Should be first a necessity.
Before and not after,
Destroying humanity.
Leaving nothing done won but destruction!
A destruction.
Left as an accepted reason,
To commit and permit...
The use of power.
A power having to have it to display.
And who had chosen to escalate,
More of it to leave...
Behind them to prove,
A place in history to create.
For themselves no one celebrates!
Or...
Capable to escape away,
From a place made for a few to allow...
Ignorance as a choice to destroy it all!
