Are You There God
These headlines are a bee’s sting
Most situations vinegar atop a slice
Recurrences you would think good norm
A father gone rogue taken his kid for wife
Mentors hyenas over the innocent
A sane violating a unstable
Trainee kids in the “begging profession”
Corruption the bountiful profession untaught in any school curriculum
Addictions’ monopoly a snake’s venom in the society’s veins
Just yesterday love was beautiful today it pulled the trigger
We were a family now drifting apart by our fight for wealth
The applause of human wars sinks humanity in some
Our ‘leaders’ for themselves we the common their cash trees
The list of stony consciences too long, too bizarre…heartbreaking
“God are you there?’
This world’s struggles do you feel?
Our painful questions aloud within do you hear?
The ugly choking our lives’ loveliness do you see?”
“God are you there?
Won’t you breathe back sanity to our thoughts, choices, actions?"
