Pathways
The earth she cries we have made her bleed
we have bled her dry to feed imagined need
her crops our cash to fill our greed
we plant her naught to increase her seed
The kernel of destruction we plant with our hands
it's watered by complacency in all of the lands
self gratification and egocentric demands
the flame of destruction blown by billions of fans
Murder most foul upon mankind and earth
the adversary positioned to increase it's birth
and unseen military designed to destroy
mankind's weaknesses his evident employ
Crop upon crop of weeds fill the field
only you can gather them so the fields have yield
from the time of the garden whisper of Dragon held sway
but you have revealed judgment his throne taken away
The Throne of the Universe given to one who is true
his government will create all things new
its like has never been in this system of things
the Glory of God and his purpose it brings
another one too long for Poetry Soup
