An OK To Okay It Okayed
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
An OK once given to give it,
Had meant one agreed.
To have made it understood,
This doing to leave that way.
Today?
To agree with someone,
Could begin an argument.
Having nothing to do,
With an agreement made.
To have believed okayed.
Today?
People will start to disagree,
With what they perceive....
Is another using reverse phsychology.
Making an assumed ignorance,
A proven to confirm and shown stupidity!
And this,
Done to provide the evidence of it...
Is reason alone to OK it in the way,
The proof exposed...
Needed no further explanation.
To know it given,
Would continue and not end...
A misunderstanding.
Wanted left misunderstood.
'Some folks love to hear,
The sound of their annoying voices.
Then to complain,
About others having nothing to say.'
Ignorance given fuel,
Is like a match thrown to an opened mouth...
Knowing nothing comes out of it but gas.
Gas ready to light fire to B.S. they've started!
As if the doing had been permitted okayed.
And allowed to spread wherever it does.
'And people like that,
Will always claim themselves to be...
Loyal and faithful Christians.'
Right?
And never the duplicitous hypocrites,
Most of them are to be discovered.
