Not Addressed

If something is not wanted,
In one's life or environment...
Does it have to be accepted?
Especially when options,
Are given to be selected.

Is it ridiculous to listen,
To those with sustained complaints?
Or support those who embellish their circumstances,
Without restraint.

We live in those times when a focused mind is hard to find.
And when one is discovered,
It seems others do their best...
To dismiss the direct honestness of it.
Since this is not addressed on anyone's priority list.
