There are wrongdoings people commit for which they do not atone. Some are deliberate and some unintentional; nevertheless, the outcome remains the same. There are those that have the gall to blatantly lie when the truth is apparent and undeniable and those that look inward when fame and fortune appear to glorify their lives, instead of directing them toward alleviating the misery of others.
Things in which some people thrive –
Such as wrongs that they contrive
While they forge ahead unheeding
Values that they might be needing;
When they continue to do
What they feel is right and true,
See not deeper when they can
In the absence of a plan;
When they fail to see the light,
Choose, instead, the dark of night;
Deviate from rightly doing
Things that they should try pursuing;
When they know not freedom really
Should be valued, oh, so dearly!
Espousing selfishly the feeling
Bells of fortune should be peeling
Only for themselves, exclusive –
Action deemed somewhat abusive;
There are those that keep on lying
About tragedies, denying
That these never happened sadly –
Falsehoods that they utter gladly
Like the holocaust whose mystery
Being a blatant fact of history,
To all these, I humbly state,
There are those that gravitate.
