Stripping
As nation's strip in conquest's rung
within small ranks, the same song sung
is stripping of all man's among
to dialogue yeah, provisions none!
Soul stripping as religious feign
is almost tempting man's remain
to give to God all self's contain,
yet strip a self of worthwhile claim.
How valid is my own complete
as charity, I am humbled, beat -
so trusting, yet injustice feat
continues on, the stripping's creed.
As even age strips times repeat,
I strip my faith in thee, replete.
This stripping down of resource' meet,
not justifying, how ingrate!
Strip not my love, eternal beat,
this drum that carries my defeat
is often sounding - often fleet
with score rebounding . . . never sweet!
