Keeping Done A Decadence Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Keeping done a decadence,
Absolutely makes no sense...
To talk about an etiquette,
Correct and proper...
When mouths are dropped,
And eyes start poppin'.

Keeping done a decadence,
Without it censored as a defense.
Yet...
What is said to be read and with effect.
Upsets.
Those with kept pretensions.

And...
Keeping done a decadence,
Absolutely makes no sense...
When on TV screens to be seen,
Nothing left imagined...
Is considered obscene.

But...
There's a kept decadence accepted,
By the ones who do it and protect it.
As long as those dollars flow,
Into certain pockets...
Anything goes.

Keeping done a decadence...
Is marketed with evidence.
But...
Pocketing the dollars wont stop it,
By the hypocrites selecting...
Who should be censored.
