To not
Learn

From what
Brought
You down
Before

Leaves you
Chasing
A
Dream
Of Godly strength

Where the
Only person
To blame

Is yourself

To glare into the sun
And think
The mind won't burn

Is to live
In a
Denial
Vaster than:

The Pacific
The Mojave
The Roads of Los Angeles or
The Plains of Montana

Each finger
That lifts
Will be in vain

Will be
Energy
Wasted

The eyes
Wish not to see
What they
Cannot
Accept

Accept the
Horrible

Accept the
Madness

Admit to
Accept
The unacceptable

Accept the
Inhumanity
Of
Humanity

And then

Fight

Fight against
All of it
