The Conundrums of Today and the Promise of Tomorrow

The Conundrums of Today and the Promise of Tomorrow A tear of genuine sorrow forming in the eye of an innocent child The fear of what the feminine has borrowed in order to represent itself as wild A torrid exclamation from a Capatalist exposed to the truth A florid invocation of one sincerely reflecting on his youth The inference of genocide behind a concrete wall The impotence that cannot hide when it’s exposed to one and all An unsightly vision of misplaced expressions of sultry romantic need As nightly incisions of disgraced regressions expose the rich man for his greed A light that burns so brightly that it lingers beyond the dawn A fight that turns contritely to peace and turns agression into yawns The solitude of refection that calls for every man to embrace As the rude perceptions of introspection show every line upon her face A world divided constantly over economics, war and power While they resided instantly in shelter of the profanity as the law breaks by the hour A fragile refugee crossing a boarder with dreams of freedom in her mind A soliloquy embossing a crazy hoarder who screams and leads them to what she cannot find The water sources poisoned as the population fights for the right to breathe A daughter forces to be orphaned as her heart begins to grieve The grand extrapolations of world leaders in consultation As they demand configurations as people bleed in commiseration The corruption of the heirarchy denying justice for the poor While the interruption of the patriarchy demands the political stage and floor As the homeless on the streets survive another night in the cold The resistance faces defeats as they are bought before they can be sold The never ending desperation of a mothers love for her only child They’ll try to severe it pretending indignation as each protest is officially put on file While the earth declines and heats beyond all scientific predictions Is it worth it to compete with the wrong specifics and intentions? Rise again power and knowledge from the depths of honour and legitimate truth The wise don’t pretend to share the flowers of their foliage until they meet the dedication of the youth And life renews both fair and just and with grace and dignity and might While man and wife no longer dispair over what is wrong and what is right There is hope upon the horizon of mankind growing once again As we elope with light to rest our eyes upon in unshakeable knowing until the end .

Thanks for sharing this. God bless you. Meanwhile, I greet you with a Joyous New Year with this prayer from the Bible in Numbers 6:24-26, "The Lord bless thee, and keep thee: The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace."
