No More Than Passing Spats

Choosing to hide their delusions,
Has to terrify those in denial.
Those with a wish to protect,
Their hopes from fears...
That current conflicts,
Are no more than passing spats...
Between schoolyard children,
During recess...as to them it appears.

And the authorities looking at this,
From their windows...
Will soon make it clear with warnings,
Of disciplinary actions taken...
If those responsible do not stop soon.
Or parents will be contacted,
With threats to dispell those with bad behavior...
From their classes.
