Take Aways

When one takes away
what you want to see,
what you are told you
should see...then you 
are left with, what there
is to see – take the business
out of politics, and you are
left with leaders; take the lies
out of politics, and there is
little else for politicians
to say. Take suffering from
the world, and politicians lose
power over Humanity. 

Oh, and that Cash-cow of 
Abortion! Even in cases of rape 
and incest, has murder ever been
the solution
to evil?

Words of wisdom that duly enlighten in your powerful first stanza, Joe. With your permission, I wish to say: let the women decide (about your second stanza). I totally respect your point of view, my friend.

Thank you for commenting Vijay. My poem made no mention of preventing women from deciding...I just pray for their wrongly guided souls. May I do that?

Thank you for the support, Victor. It is not a pleasant poem...but if it begs us to think deeper about ourselves and the direction of humanity. Blessings my friend. Have a beautiful day!
