Depiction of Derelection of Duty

Depiction of Dereliction of Duty

No matter how hard you have to hunt,
Like that should never pull a stunt
Which would cause much mass confusion
While you wanted to remain in seclusion.

Now that no one knows you are there
And of course less could really care
For words so I can get something across
I am really always at a complete loss.

When you decided a decision must make
You were the only one who was wide awake
And aware that tomorrow just like today
Will always continue on without any delay.

Somewhere in South is where we live
And if my all to everyone, I was to give
Many people this probably would concern
Were made when I didn't take my turn.

Regardless we finally are at peace at last
And what once had become part of the past
Resulted in duty being full of dereliction
All part of my poem and its depiction.
