Puzzling Times
POLITICS and its process should
reflect the wishes of the people
UNITED we stand and divided we fall
And if we stand for nothing,
We are certain to fall for anything
ZERO must never be the sum total
of our progress
ZEALOUSNESS wrapped in principles
and the truth is powerful
LYING and cheating are evils,
even at the ballot boxes
I and you must demand truth from would-be
leaders without regard to winning and losing.
NO one, whether politician or president
is ever above the law
GOD'S hand is still stretched out to
those desiring His help
THE time is now for us to divert
from paths that lead to disaster
IN all branches of our government,
may God's light shine
MORALITY'S rapid descent to our
nation's basement must be averted
EVEN so, every effort must be exhausted
to halt this runner-away train
SADNESS and sorrow, I believe, will cover
the face of the earth if this our 'one nation
under God' should ever abandon God
