Ransomed

   Shouting and screaming
     about events far away
   Protestors shut down
     the Golden Gate Highway

   An important trial had to be canceled
     business-as-usual victimized, ransomed
   to the vain yells of the progressive nation
     which won't affect one iota
                                  Hamas' devastation

Victory in Jericho…with marching and a trumpet shout. It is not nearly the numbers…we are but ants in the sight of God, but oh those angel armies!

A sad state of affairs when those with little to say never stop talking
