Violence Is NOT Acceptable
A reflection of a society,
Again examined to be in denial...
Sits upon the shoulders,
Of those sticking to their defensiveness.
'Violence is NOT acceptable! '
States calmly,
A handpicked psychologist.
'These acts are to be isolated.
These acts are not correct images,
Of our quality of life.
Or our values we pride and raise high to lift.'
And yet,
No rejection of an abuse of freedoms,
Is mentioned on anyone's lips.
No self examinations done to evaluate,
Where these abuses of freedoms originate.
Or how they came to exist!
A truth faced escapes,
To be replaced by self righteousness.
It seems a pain remains the same...
As victory over conflicts,
Is focused upon,
While a craze increases.
And is allowed to go on!
'Violence is NOT accepted! '
States calmly,
The handpicked psychologist.
'Our ways of dealing with violence heals!
No matter how exaggerated,
Others evaluate...
With their depictions of it!
Our ways of dealing with violence heals!
And embellishing our ignorance...
We will not tolerate another moment!
Not for another second,
Will we listen to this.
We might have our problems!
And we all might not agree.
But what we do have in this society,
Is a sense of devoted loyalty.'
~What a wonderful speech.
