She believed everything I said

P.T. Barnum said "There is a sucker born every minute,"

True.
Vision of Insanity says there's a dope dead every second.

I agree with The Oralizer.  
Fools everywhere.  

Cool piece.

Lot's of them.

Thanks!

Nice crisp write...

Thank you LDF

Hell yeah nice write K!!

Thank you my dear friend!

Sometimes, we desire to be inspired to where we become vulnerable to gullibility.  I think it can be a trust issue, from either one person or another.  On the other hand, you shouldn't leave yourself open to so much suggestion from others in the world, simply because of how rough it is, and human nature, and the darkness of all of that.  I can empathize with either side, because I love being inspired, but I hate feeling vulnerable and guilty, so it remains perplexing to be open and trusting at times.  Another thing to know for being tough, yet conscientious - you can forgive, but you don't have to trust.  Anyway, just some thoughts that your poem elicited me to think.  Thanks for sharing!

your detailed comments to my poems is greatly appreciated. I admire your dedication,knowledge and opinions to my work.
Big thank you!

Well, I don't mean to be full of myself.  I just try to give support and commentary where I can.  This was an interesting topic to me, thus, I responded.  Thanks again.

I appreciate it my friend. Thank you!!

Maybe she believes everything you say because she herself is serious about everything she says and supposes you to do the same?
Haunting poem,, Keith!👍

Thanks for coming by & reading & commenting.

Maybe not so much nativity, but rather an innate desire to believe in something. Blind faith is named so for a reason. Never did quite understand it. My mind doesn't work that way. I need proof, I need research and data and case studies. Even then I am cautious and apprehensive. This leads to less experiences. Missing out on opportunities. Being unwilling to take chances. Which is better? Im alive, as opposed to your subject here, but am I living? 🤔

I say baby steps with certain things that were not to keen on but want to do it. So many jump and fall flat on their face. Like the girl in this poem.
Some are so scared of life they dwell in their own misery. Both sides aren't the way to live.
