Lived As Is Depicted Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Accepted!
And projected to reflect,
An expectation of life.
As viewed day and night,
To be the right and correct way to live.
Are visions of images imitated.

And meant they are to be portrayed,
As values and standards marketed everyday.
To then say what is accepted,
Is not the life lived as is depicted...
Only reflects upon those addicted.
Who refuse to examine to see themselves wicked.

Accepted!
And projected to reflect,
An expectation of life.
As viewed day and night,
To be the right and correct way to live.
Are visions of images imitated.
To leave enraged those exasperated,
In disbelief to wonder why?
