A Big No To God

A Big NO to God

Some take great pride in declaring God dead.
What are the thoughts in
their godless heads? 

A world where infanticide is perfectly alright.
And "choice"is a word, that makes evil, right? 

Where Rabbis are shot dead in the street? 
And a Christian poem, their eyes will not meet.

And love and world peace are their hue and cry.
Yet, they can't understand why, the violence, asking, 
"why, oh why?"

Brainwashed in our society to think guns kill people.
You never find these folks in a synagogue nor under 
a steeple.

Don't you know it's fine today, to attack the police? 
And the working man, well, he must be fleeced!

It's perfectly OK to do whatever you choose!
Their close friends only, with them, do they want to
schmooze.

Chasing animal and tree rights, yes that's their religion.
And so, Almighty God, is crushed to a smidgen!

I do try. I understand this puts me on the do not read or comment to list and I understand the fear of peer pressure. That's Ok! Those with cajones will comment. The working poor, I call them, they get trashed for supporting a family? Business owners? All are evil? Why work? Let's all live in tents. SF nay get a Hepatitis A plague. I do feel for the mentally ill on the streets. They need hospitalization.the amount of registered sex offenders in Marin County is over 850! Our Gov invites the worlds poor to all live here. In SF, a two room apartment is 3,500 per month. It's beyond insane to even think of living there if you are poor. OMG. Panagiota

Not really! I just don't function well, walking thru life with a blindfold. The world won't work if I chain myself to a tree. I call it, like I see it. Walking through the dreck of lies put upon us, is a sin. We do not know up from down. Not all,but willing poets, STOP being so fearful that others won't like you. There is a chance for honest poets to stop following the pack. There are individualists here. Only God decides when the world ends. Not all the fear mongers. Panagiota.
