Living is easy with eyes closed
Ignoring life’s problems posed,
Facts of life - often ugly and hard
Battled and scarred,
Don’t cease to exist if ignored-
Creates rhetoric that is flawed.
Ignorance a human weakness
Ignorance our deepest secret!
The most ignorant don’t know it
Won’t admit it - their mind unlit!
Inability to change their belief
Inability to question the reality
No wish to open their eyes
Cockiness their disguise!
Their ignorance, conscientious
stupidity, dangerous indifference ,
Makes life harder - no surprise -
For those living with fear in their eyes.

Fear the mind killer, that every politician every person in power knows how to use to well, especially now.
BRIAN HERE ~ Thanks for sharing (and scaring) SUE ! An elegant ODE in nine Rhyming Couplets ! COVID 19 is scary ~ but ~ if we ignore it & congregate ~ it ACCUMULATES ~ if we respect it and isolate ~ we will have it under control like FLU ! KIDS (as you know) expect answers *Uncle Brian can you make a pill to kill it ?* *Aunty Angela will exercise make us immune ?* I explain that Biochemists & Virologists are cooperating Worldwide to creat a VACCINE and Angela explains that Fitness & being less obese makes one less prone to disease. WE must all keep alert well into 2021 and support each other ! Please chesk our SYN-ACROSTIC ~ EXPECTATIONS ~ Thanks A & B !
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian & Smokey !
So many people seem to ignore the problems that are be fore them, once those problems are faced people can move on into a better life - its called experience.
