Disheveled Levels

Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)



Massive.
Interactive,
Distracting attractions.
Trending.
Like a fashionable fad.
As...
A sad growing must to have!

Disheveled levels of upheaval.
Dropping from the top.
Has many people seething evil.
As if they can not stop,
These levels shifting quick.
Feeding minds to make them sick.
And seek they do to blame everyone else.
But not themselves.
For designing and promoting,
To permit every stitch...
Of this sickening evil wickedness.

Disheveled levels of upheaval.
Crumbling to the ground.
Created by a few provoking,
Conflicts all around.
And those recruited to be culprits?
Show themselves fully clothed to expose,
To have cut their noses done to do...
For the purpose to be proud,
Of being puppets used to abuse.

From head to toe.
Effective are these disheveled levels.
Maximized to grow.
With a keeping,
All thoughtless people blind.
Until the truth to find it,
Makes them lose their minds.
And left behind they will be...
Tossed aside while they come to agree,
The only worth they have to humanity...
Is to remain commodities to amuse,
Those investing their time and money too.
Being entertained by the ones,
With smiling faces fixed.
Proving they have been,
Stripped of minds and consciousness!

Massive.
Interactive.
Distracting attractions trending.
Like a fashionable must have fad.
Although sad,
Is this growing to accept and approved...
MADNESS!

Disheveled are these levels of upheaval.
And kept...
To keep them maximized.
Disheveled are these levels of upheaval.
And meant...
To keep them maximized.
Yes!
To keep them maximized.
And address...
All of the mess.
Yes!

Disheveled are the levels of upheaval,
And kept...
Meant.
To keep them maximized.
Yes!
To keep them maximized.
Yes!
To blind minds and eyes.
Who have progressed the process,
Of all of the mess.
Yes!
To keep them maximizing,
The mess.
Yes!
But to claim themselves,
Among the blessed!
Yes.
Oh, yes!
