All Lives Matter

Blessed are those who love God, the God of love and mercy Blessed are those who follow one God, who leads with compassion showing mercy Cursed are those who follow the Prince of darkness, who fell from Heaven dragged down by the weight Lesser Ego -- He who shows no Mercy will be shown no Mercy A Terrorist is the Son of the Devil a Harlot of Evil All Lives Matter Even the whores of the press, the whores of politics, and those building mansions profiting from war let those who hear with ears yet open pause and listen to the tender heart of wisdom while those darkened. Shut off souls, will know the Fires of Purification So written in the annals of bloody history

I'm reminded of this thought from Ecclesiastes 8:9, "All of this I have seen, and I applied my heart to every work that has been done under the sun, during the time that man has dominated man to his harm." And so it continues, until the day of Jehovah arrives to set all matters straight. Nice poetic expose Joe

Congratulations on POTD! "Blessed are those who follow one God, who leads with compassion showing mercy" an yet we are here, in 2023. Man uses God for power & greed. All due to scriptures of ancient that give bad men power to kill, and torture, and make Revelation come true. Are you sure you don't mean Jesus, the Messiah?

Joe Dimino
Date: 10/31/2023 7:08:00 AM

Very surprised and honored with this POTD. Anaya, you have my permission to name for me. Blessings my friend.

a powerful and timely poem, Joe. Yes, all lives matter. Sadly, though, throughout history, man has proven otherwise via 'wars and rumors of wars.' War is horrific at a grand scale just as character assassination is on a smaller scale. Your words spoke to me. Am faving this one...and hearty congrats on POTD, Sara

All lives matter Joe, but only to some countries and people, Hamas are a direct extension of the Misogynistic Islamic republic of Iran, it’s not only Israel they hate but the whole free world, and are willing to sacrifice every poor Palestinian in Gaza to further their twisted aims, little men with big guns hide behind women, children, and hospital beds, but of course (the deluded) refuse to see the bigger picture, anyway this is not a religious view just one based on pragmatism, congratulations on POTD, cheers David

Congratulations Joe on this timely POTD..I could feel the angst in this write. The "eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth" was in the Old Testament I believe, not in the new. I realize we must stand up for our allies and all wars are horrific but there are so many innocents being caught in the crossfire on both sides. Heartbreaking all the way around.

Joe Dimino
Date: 10/31/2023 7:16:00 AM

I agree, Nancy -- we pray for peace together.

Mindful insights into the blessed and the cursed. A profound message you convey my friend: let those who hear with ears yet open pause and listen to the tender heart of wisdom. Enlightened words, Joe.

Joe Dimino

Thank you, Vijay; many people think that, people who have aligned with evil are consciously aware -- most are not. Mystics, on the invisible, work with fallen spirits, trying to help awaken them, comfort and make ready for salvation -- until then, the deceived are not a pretty atmosphere. Makes Halloween, by comparison, seem a tender nursery rhyme. Blessings my friend. Thank you for the support.
