I believe this is a word of advice or warning
More than it is a poem
I don’t even know where to begin
To express the things I feel
How deeply I believe in my understanding
Of what’s to come
As well as
What has been
As I watch our Government
Scramble
To solve our nations problems with money
As did all the great Empires in History
That has crumbled before us
My heart bleeds for the people
Who have no concept
Of how to grow their own garden
Raise their own beef
Fish, hunt and live off the land
Which to be quite frank is about 90% of the population
What is going to happen when the people
Can no longer feed their families
Out of the local supermarket
Because when they go there
All they will find is a sign that says “Sorry out of business”
Ponder this for just a moment if you will
800 hundred billion may as well be 800 trillion
Because the simple fact is
None of it is even worth the price
Of the paper it’s printed on
And by the time our Government prints that money out
It will be even more worthless than it is today
BECAUSE THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY
To reverse the wrath of God
And that is through prayer
And I don’t see Congress
Falling on their knees
Begging for mercy
Before they start to argue about which idiot has the best idea
To fix what their intelligence has already destroyed
“ONE NATION UNDER GOD”
One of my first memories of what I was taught in school
History---------Repeats----------Itself
Every Empire that considered themselves above the wrath of God
“GOD HUMBLED THAT ASS” (Pardon the Language)
And guess what
Were next
