Evilness Inflicted
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Evilness.
And the wickedness of it.
Seems a permanent infliction.
For the ones,
Living their innocent lives.
Suffering through,
What those thoughtless...
Pick and choose to do this to!
With time to use to abuse others.
Although time like this,
Enjoyed to dismiss...
Is a man-made activity.
Committed to 'assume',
An evil inflicted to exist...
Has no ending to it.
As if faith kept is a valueless undertaking.
A waste of praying.
To The Almighty Creator.
Unseen yet very aware.
More powerful than a judge or jury.
And...
Eventually proving to be prepared.
Without notice to deliver,
A serving to those wicked and evil.
Unaware nor prepared.
For what it is God does,
To blinded minds finding time to define...
The wishes of God.
Until out of their minds to deserve it seen,
Those claiming to be the chosen ones.
Permanently.
Were correct.
Left to witness and observed to be,
Crazed.
Mentally.
With no cure or remedy.
Isolated.
And alone.
As a wish to grant and receive publicly!
'This 'prophecy' is your opinion!'
I am not claiming to be a prophet.
I am just your average,
Conscious and opinionated observer.
'Well...
Keep your observations to yourself!'
For so long I have tried that.
But those out of their minds,
I can't avoid their attempts...
To normalized these times.
They find acceptable to ignore.
And I am not a fan of fiction that deludes,
Truth over reality as a way of life.
Messed up by many living in denial.
Drowning themselves in pretensions!
'That may be their choice to choose.'
I agree.
You get no argument from me.
Afterall...
We do live in a place,
In which entitlements are given.
As one chooses to use them.
Then protest to defend,
How they conduct their own...
Self destruction.
'Again...
That's your opinion.'
And again I will mention,
I am just an observer.
However...
There may be times my eyes to me lie.
