Consequences All Must Face Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

A society beset by diverse realities.
And promised entitlements,
Everyone can and should receive...
Creates its own dilemmas,
When people perceive every wish they dream...
Can be obtained regardless of a depleted economy.

And delusions completely erased from fantasies,
Is difficult for anyone elected...
Or assigned to deliver a truth of consequences all must face.

People are afraid they can't escape,
From...
Those consequences everyone must face.
And...
With a wish to have them quickly erased,
To be done overnight approved will soothe.

A people made afraid they can't escape,
From...
Those consequences everyone must face.
And...
With a wish to have them quickly erased,
To be done overnight approved to soothe.

A society beset by diverse realities.
And promised entitlements,
Everyone will receive...
But the proof of this is not in stone or pudding.
'Cause...
A people made afraid they can't escape,
From...
Those consequences everyone must face.
And...
With a wish to have them quickly erased,
To be done overnight approved...
Will not for them come!

A people made afraid they can't escape,
From...
Those consequences everyone must face.
And...
With a wish to have them quickly erased,
To be done overnight approved...
Will not for them come to be done.
Or ever to be known as soon.

A people made afraid they can't escape,
From...
Those consequences everyone must face.
Will not be undone with a doing...
To replace their gloom.
