Pissed Off

"Pissed Off"
by:  Eric L. Bodddie

It really saddens me to write these words
The current state of the USA is so absurd
Black Lives do Matter just as all the others do
Candace Owens said George Floyd deserves no sympathy, Candace, shame on you
Your path leads STRAIGHT TO HELL, I wonder what all they will do
And to say you are for the black community, is that the sellout code
There is one in every woman, but at some point, you must exit b**** mode
Then there's Laura Ingraham, proof that racism does exist
She told Lebron to shut up and dribble, but she's cool with what Brees admits
Then she tried to hide behind our Lord, just know God Will Remember that
He Has A Special Place for those trying to implement Him in their false acts
And Trump said Floyd's death was good for both, the USA and him
From here I can smell the bulls*** on the breaths of all of them
The peace has been tried, but the masses won't let this slide
Kap tried to tell them back then, but attention was diverted to the flag
This is the devil's nation, the truth is right before our eyes
Church and state are to be separate, but on the currency is where their god lies
The Word Says the love of money is what lies at the very root
And if you cant see that, you can go to hell with all the f****** loot

Very powerful words coming from the heart of someone that really cares. All needs to stop, but it lives as you see through the centuries. The devil reigns, has his games and lets everyone do his dirty work.

Straight answers to straight questions we of sound mind can always see, no beating about the edges, like the sincerity.

Your words ring true, Eric. This has never been about disrespecting the flag. It's about disrespecting people based on color. There's turmoil throughout the world, and Satan laughs.

You are right, Eric, this is 2020 and these conversations are way past due. But perhaps there is a thread of hope, looking at the protests and the number of young white people joining in, perhaps their generation will finally get it right. As for mine...I will hang my head in shame. Keep speaking your mind my friend. John

I agree with your comment to Kim "there should be no need for this." What Trump did outside of the church should never be forgiven.

The whole situation seems to be creating a bigger divide and so many people do not get it... Nice to see you back, brother...

Sad that this world promotes hate and lies. That greed rules and the weak are so down trodden. Your emotional and powerful verses may speak too much truth for some to hear. As a poet -let your verses sing what the heart feels and knows my friend. God bless..
