Oh, I Forgot

I forgot I belonged to God. He is my only Master, not worldly foppish clowns. My allegiance, to no human is owed. Just to Him, who gave me life and an eternal soul. Can people harm me, oh yes, indeed. But I can overcome anything with heed. Do not kiss feet of humanity, they are not gods. Yet you continue to adore, cynical, vicious clods. The human body by him was made. Not by humans, lying in the shade. He chose you to beautify this earth. With His words,not being avoided in your verse. The human body deserves respect! On Hollywood's list or Netflix, of this, They reject? Times can be sane again! If you do not support them..I ask each of you, when? Vindictiveness, in blogs here do fly. Arrogance, darkening poetic skies. We can be better than this. Uplifting others, instead of killing them with words by our poetic wrists. 1/14/2021 ~6-

Our allegiance is to God and God alone, treat others as you'd like to be treated. Tom

Indeed, he is there no matter who thinks they are in charge.... PS..I loved those last two lines. Some bullies roam here lime bulls...,snorting with arrogance looking for a fight or smashing others in the face, Pangie Thank you

Interesting -- 'We can be better than this' -- I wrote to a fellow poet tonight that I used to think that Americans (at least) can be better than 'this.'... used to think so. ~ Not anymore

So sorry, GW. If we think, as you say, that Americans best days are over, they will be that way for you. In essence, you will be HUNG BY YOUR OWN TONGUE, ...I KNOW what hard days these are, GW. But...knock it off! As your friend, am being honest. I will not stand by in denial watching the Hitlerian takeover of the USA. You and and I know the end result...simply, extermination of any dissidents. The ban on R's, to social media is chilling. SOUPMAIL. Watch footage of how Hitler gained power. Same here, be strong. In memory of Anne Frank, Pangie.

I wish, Krish, I shared your serenity. I am not well at all. I never lived in a Gulag of oppression before. I said in line one, I belonged to God. He is not Santa Claus.! Freedom is chosen by a nation. It's not a gift, we died to be free. No more...it's over.....I have been a freedom fighter for well over 50 decades. Marches, voting since I was 18""Americans do not know as I Told Quoth the Raven , we now live in a New World Order. I don't mean that in a positive way. Watch what happens.... Pangie After, 1,900 poems, you know, this is no time to ignore reality for me. I have much work to do.
