Maria Said Let Them Eat Cake

Adam said to God ,I am old and tired let the young men populate the world i want to rest God said' Adam your seed is the first your not done, eat more cake" If God looked at France and the rest of the world, how much more can Adam's offspring take? Hunger cries go unheard,poverty unseen. A call came to standup. True warrriors they are. not a human life did they bake. With heat from burning buildings, busses and cars. Smoke and flames seen from afar. Yet Rome burns around the world while dance,music is played. Outside people are in slaved. Frances learned a lesson that,s not to late, what about us? are we waiting for the first burning bus? Or will we re-think our need call it greed? And allow others to raise they're seed? It,s God 's plan for us to grow. Now you know how the story with Adam goes. allow us to eat more cake. { peace}
