Maybe Days Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Those maybe days,
Once to if and dismiss them.
With a normalcy of life to live.
Seem to have gone.
No longer again for anyone to appear.

Too serious has reality come.
Prioritized is the paying of attention.
To everything said and heard to be done.
And a maybe to state it.
Followed by an hesitated if.
Immediately exposes,
One with a mind still in denial.
And quick to drift away on nonsense.

"How are you spending your time,
During this virus and the crisis? "

-Wow.
That's right.
I hadn't thought about it.
Maybe and if you and others,
Stop mentioning it so much...
It will disappear.
And we can return back,
To living our normal lives.-

"That doesn't seem to be a problem.
At least not for you.
You seem to be immuned from all reality."

-No.
I just don't accept,
People have to prove it exists.
Then to die as if,
Maybe they will get attention.
Comeon!
Tell me...
What kind of truth and reality,
Is that to live? -
