Not Conscious Of Its Acceptance

I have an idea!
Let's all pretend,
What is happening,
Isn't.

'Is that the best you can do?
We've been doing that for years.
That's how we got into this mess.'

Well...
Let's all pretend,
To be disconnected from it.
The mess.

'There is just one problem.'

What is it?

'How can we excuse our involvement,
Without acknowledging...
We were not conscious of its acceptance? '

I have another idea.

'What is it? '

We can always say,
We didn't exist when the 'mess' was implemented.

'I have an idea.'

Good!
Let's hear it.

'Why don't you keep your ideas to yourself.
And implement a nonthinking process.
I'm willing to bet,
'That' will be accepted.'
