Analysis of Thriving In Denial



Many thrive to survive,
To become pretending a living in denial.
Eventually satisfies.
Their choice to choose truth to refuse.
And this is expected,
As a defense to protect.
In fear of not being accepted.
By others who may reject them.
For projecting a performance,
Of nonconforming publicly...
A patriotism few these days reflect.

Then on their knees they pray to do.
When fiction to delude,
Forces them to face the truth.
Hoping God will remove the reality,
Of losing their things claimed to own.
With a doing to blame it unknown,
Thriving to survive in denial alone...
Had been an attempt by immigrants,
To destroy their fictioned to live lives.
As a means to finalize the end,
Of a deception that began with lies told.
To believe this to create.
Would leave them exclusively celebrating,
If they kept to keep...
Others less fortunate,
Believing they too were victims of truth.
And not the victims of deceivers,
Doing their best to portray themselves...
As those who suffer more.
Than all the rest who today object,
Being used as tools to trick and fool.
From birth to do.
Proving who God created to imitate,
The image of the chosen ones.
The very ones,
Destroying everything...
That God has done.
With approval to cause and create,
Division, racism and Worldwide havoc!
