Polarization Thanks To Denial
Copyright 2009 John Trubee

Day denies night
Success ignores failure
Optimism disdains realism
The triumphant blithe to tragedy
Happiness insensate to loss,
pain,
grief,
sorrow--
til all so polarized
the world explodes.

Denial, willful ignorance,
fear of the 50% dark side of life
Inform the overconfident
Who run things.

Let’s hang them
although it’s too late to remedy
the infernal chaos their dumb overconfidence
engendered.

--John Trubee
