Joe Maverick Poet Rhyme

Don'T Get High On God's Supply

High and mighty leaders brag, 
They own gas gold arms drugs
Whoah.. Quite a stash ' They'll 
Stick or sell, when it favours them'
These are righteous dignified
Women and men, there are Kings
And dukes and earls and Queens
Presidents and oligarchs and mighty
Smoke screens there are trumpets 
And tiles degrees and such, They're never
Seen to stoop to slinging muck; yet
They'll grab the power the gold and gems
It's all for the people that's their zen 
They'll fly the choppers and drive flash cars
They'll bribe any judge or military Czar
Yet in their headlong rush, in their ivory towers 
They loose true sight if God's true power 
Don't be 'like them' if you're in God's fold?
His power and strength its really  untold.'
Walk In integrity..revere Him; here I'll be bold 
Never take Glory: or keep power; stay safe be told
And never ever; be led to take on the 
Mantle and trapping of power and pride..
In words stay clear, how? and why? 
Because
You'll regret;  getting high; on God's supply.!

Suzanne Delaney April 2, 2022 at 3:32 PM Joe: Such a powerful write and shines the light on what we all see becoming so clear. Corruption on an unimaginable scale. We cannot speak truth to power when there is censorship. And greed. SuZ Joe Maverick April 3, 2022 at 3:43 AM Thank you Suzanne much Appreciated today'

Vijay Pandit March 30, 2022 at 2:34 PM God advice, Joe. Humility wins the day. Joe Maverick March 31, 2022 at 10:34 AM Thanks Vijay... In short terms What have we got that God Can't take?

Panagiota Romios March 30, 2022 at 1:52 PM We have a nation of human beings. All equal in Gods sight. We do pass judgement far too fast on too many in power here. Criminals? Oh, they are Ok...welfare cheats..,they are OK, too. The evil at PS is only in power? I know killers, addicts, drunks..but they get halos? NO! It’s how it is at PS. Only leaders are Sinners. I try to look at my whole life. I agree with Christ... let he who is without sin, cast the first stone.Evil people are in all classes. Life is far from pefect. Good poem, Joe!PR Joe Maverick March 31, 2022 at 10:45 AM I don't know why my answer Came out higher up..? Pangie Must have been me making A mistake again.' lol)))

Michael Tor March 29, 2022 at 7:00 PM Great piece Joe, spot on for God. God bless you... Joe Maverick March 29, 2022 at 10:55 PM Thanks for your thoughts Michael..I didn't want to seem Irreverent in the title, yet truly All is God's everything.'

Joseph P. DiMino March 29, 2022 at 1:39 PM "yet They'll grab the power the gold and gems It's all for the people that's their zen" Great writing, Joe. Clear vision, driven by love for God, and veneration of His Creation. Indeed, when man usurps God's Powers, instead of co-creators, we become independent destroyers. Wow! What do you really think?:) Joe Maverick March 29, 2022 at 10:57 PM I've seen it Joe.. At times and It's in the Bible even men of Good understanding have fallen Here..) its dangerous grounds.'
