A Better Way to Destroy a Good Thing

A better way to destroy a good thing...
And people have been known to do this.
Is to undermine the benefits,
By tearing apart the one who introduces it.

And too often the success of this process,
Has caused many to slit their own throats.
Or medicate their guilt,
With active and divisive finger pointing.

Since no one wants to acknowledge...
An acceptance of what is correct,
Without objection.
And the ones who refuse this confusion,
Are early in the game labelled fools.
