Suspended Disbelief

RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: CORONAVIRUS SERIES



Suspended Disbelief

There are more of them every day
The ones who think they can bend
The world to their desires

More and more do not believe
What they do not wish to believe

They walk through the world
In defiant ignorance daring
Blowback to wash over them
Like a raging sea

I wish them well
I hope they’re right
I wish their way of thinking
Could became a reality

There is no danger
Because we want no danger
Because we are immune
Because we are the chosen
Because our minds project
Forcefields of protection

In the absence of hard facts
How long can disbelief be suspended
Before it turns to despair?
