It Is Time To Take Responsibility

It is time to take responsibility.
And stop blaming those,
Who created such a monumental mess.

~This we agree.
But those who protest our forward steps,
Just happen to be the very same people...
Who wish us not to succeed.

They want others to believe...
Their incompetence is missed.
And those choosing to ignore them,
And their pretensiousness...
Need to be convinced.
With a powerful blockading obstructing facts.
By a showing of their ignorance...
That keeps a stagnation intact.~

It is time to take responsibility.
And stop blaming those,
Who created such a monumental mess.

~Have you come forward to confess?
Or are you joining us to have this addressed?
Let me dropp this clue on you...
Most of us came out of the womb prepared.
And not to dance like Fred Astaire.~
