The Spirits Know Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

The Spirits Know



The spirits know,
Which way to get things fixed.
The spirits know,
How to deal with misfits.

Nuts that are loose untwisted,
Need to be tightened down quick.
Some unscrewed from their bolts,
Can knock around a floating boat.

And those spirits know,
Which way to get things fixed.
These spirits know,
How to deal with misfits.

Foundations crack,
If immediate attention isn't given.
To that.
And those onboard with their backs,
Turned...
Find it's too late to show concern.

The spirits know,
Who stays faithful and who fakes it.
They know,
Who is devoted and the hypocrites.
They know,
The time it is and what it takes,
To knock common sense into motion.
