Panagiota Romios Poet Couplet

Head In the Clouds

Live on the weakness of others?
So that when they are ill, we
loudly cheer and get our druthers?

Such is the likes of we, lost, poetic 
humankind.
We, who claim to be sensitive and sweet, 
are really ethically blind.

We march about like we are so
wonderfully humanistic?
Best look in the mirror, we are not kind 
but totally bombastic.

We dance garbed in black, in the shadow 
of the gallows.
Praying death comes soon to our hated 
opposition fellows.

And so proud to print hate on these pages.
Humor disguised as death wishes and blood 
curdling rages.

We cannot kill the person we hate with guns.
But our words can fully a destroy a country, 
me, you or anyone!

Heidi Sands October 4, 2020 at 6:07 AM So true Panagiota! To wish death on the ill is completely evil. Evil is being exposed by the day ! Panagiota Romios October 4, 2020 at 2:06 PM Heidi..imagine you and I going through a hospital cursing the dying, just because someone does not agree with us, is no reason to hope they die, is it? If so, this includes our neighbors too. It's uncivil. But propoganda on TV is 24/7' ." judge not, lest you be judged also" applies.. hugs, Pangie xx

Tom Cunningham October 4, 2020 at 2:02 AM Many a person has been destroyed by words alone, youre right, you don't need a gun. A bit of humourous banter is one thing but hate fuelled humour is another. Everyone has different views and we should respect that not try and tear them to pieces with words. Tom Panagiota Romios October 4, 2020 at 2:09 AM You are always a cool head,))) an admirable quality, Tom. We need billions of you on the planet. I posted 6 poems... Enough, .....brain fried. I wish death on nobody. I am upset with seeing it here.((( The world gets off on death? Let me off the planet,, Good night., Pangie cc
