Preferences Kept To Keep Referenced
As natural disasters come to go.
Leaving left in sorrow.
To know tommow has temporarily,
Closed a door to expose their pain.
Like no other time to experience before.
Some displaced from shelters,
Once familiar to have known.
Are labeled brave citizens.
And heros to be considered,
In need of immediate rescue and relief.
From their unbelievable grief.
While others to suffer through disasters,
Faced.
Listen to hear themselves called,
Refugees and immigrants.
With preferences kept,
To keep them referenced...
As human beings always complaining,
About natural disasters...
They should know to them will come to go.
Yet relief to believe for them to see done.
They are told to pray and together stay,
Hoping the evidence and proof...
Promising to them will arrive.
Faster than an elephant can fly.
If...
They can produce documents saved,
To identify themselves to be...
Citizens deserving,
Entitlements given others receive.
Others who demand and get,
An outpouring of sympathy.
Because of who they are to clearly see,
Their needs to be prioritized.
Quicker than their pain to feel it felt,
Could be described that drastic of a disaster.
To reminisce after,
Their memories of suffering to remember...
The severity of their tragedies!
Either to embellish or exaggerate to forget,
A disaster,
That had them shocked and horrified.
Into a reality and truth to deny its existence.
To again return to their lives to live fictioned!
