Just Stating the Obvious
JUST STATING THE OBVIOUS
How do I see the world today?
There is no more black or white.
There are only shades of gray.
People with black, shady characters
believe they are good by telling lies,
hiding secrets, making themselves higher.
Although, only in their selves and for others,
who do not see for they worship them,
rejecting the truth, they intentionally cover.
Some religiously righteous, spreading godliness.
Yet, not abiding to the true meaning of HIS Words.
They may be spreading distorted light, shadiness.
How can these religious institutions dispel
the believers’ doubts, when they promote the power
of men, instead of the power of the Words and relay them well.
And some of these so called spiritual men to abuse
their power to do evil ways, so harmful, damaging
the ones victimized and making them feel used.
Each individual is unique with each own talents, gifts
which are not developed for following the trend of
improving oneself with what money can buy for a lift.
Black turning gray for they believe they are good.
White turning gray for shifting their ways and thinking
money would make them happy, looking and feeling good.
