A Poem by inkedvocabulary
"

When the actions of man include inactive responses to injustice... see the lack of concern for what it really is- indifference.

"
I knew the meaning of words once,
so long ago, and they have never
been unknown... just unused,
familiarity has waned and wandered
away... away from what I have known
as the truth of the time... my life...
and these hallow words collected
and shared with strangers hoping
to be understood, some silly sense
of actually being a part of something
to see the words of man come to follow
the intentions they are wrapped in...
or masked by, when we relieve ourselves
of true concern for one another
bearing falsely as this hope offers 
us, this hope of man, for to write at
length of care and concern... and leave
it on the tables trampled by neglect
and unconcerned inactivity is to say
you care and then turn your back...
not even a glance back would releve
the lack of actions spanning years and
even continents, people deprived and
suffering by such collective inaction,
it is stated but not acted on, positively,
and it will be seen... the purpose was 
truly meant to gather nothing more than
the dust of antiquity... verbosity is the
lack of laconic truth, false intentions.

If the goal is to see through something to what is meant... what is meant here?
