Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart Poet Couplet

SWANA Zion Reich and Load

The cradle of three of the biggest faiths
Rocked by the claim one agenda stakes

Locked and loaded and ready for war
With righteous blessings for terror and gore

Sentiments civilities and landscapes pitted
All of human decency finally outwitted

Millard Lowe January 7, 2025 at 3:13 PM Indeed! To practice faith is one thing; to live it is another. You can't practice PEACE (the reality of Love); you must live it! Continue to live and canvass the truth, Maureen. One. Peace and Love. Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart January 9, 2025 at 5:58 AM Keep living it, you too, more necessary than ever these days. Thank you Millard, xomo!

Arlo Parker September 25, 2024 at 12:21 AM A seemingly provocative piece, MM. Potentially divisive on several levels. Good to ponder for oneself and act accordingly. POTD for just this reason. :o)) Aurore Severo September 27, 2024 at 1:01 AM Not divisive at all if you are for humanity, but well Wayne you have your views. Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart September 25, 2024 at 12:47 PM It was written in the spirit of lament more than provoke, but you can’t not not provoke which I lament even more. Thank you Arlo. ;),

Robert Gorelick September 24, 2024 at 10:41 AM The three major faiths are patriarchal and super-charged on testosterone, just look where it's gotten us. As the Navajos believe, it's a world out of balance. Well written and something to ponder. Congratulations on POTD! My best, Robert Robert Gorelick September 25, 2024 at 9:29 AM Below, and baptized Christians were shoving Jews in ovens, what's your point?

Arthur Vaso September 23, 2024 at 11:43 PM I beleieve this is the famous quote, even I am not sure who said it "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing,” Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart September 24, 2024 at 8:26 PM Yes.

Arthur Vaso September 23, 2024 at 10:40 PM Very well said, funny how silent people can be towards the truth. This is actually not only a well written poem, but a gem simply cause the message speaks. Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart September 24, 2024 at 8:26 PM Thank you Arthur. My muse beat this out of me, or I it, Ikm not sure but it had to come out. xomo
