The Space Between Us
~~ The Between Us~
The onyx darkness.... crawled all over me.
I, who lives in a land populated by free humanity?
Split in grievous parts by a 'cancel culture.'
Who has decided, who counts, and who does not matter.
Meanest, law breakers now rule this earth.
It's unreal and horribly dishonest of me not to sing this
mournful dearth.
Freedom shrinks like a punished, naughty child.
And the unwoked, "Woke" are anything but mild!
Murder, rioting~now quite an accepted thing.
But only for those within the palatial Woke ring.
Church doors are slammed shut, in so called free nations.
Priests are in jail, as God, not the state, is their true adoration!
Boys and girls, may no longer be addressed as such!
But,must ponder their sexuality and in primary grades, so much?
Is there a sane place in any country on this earth?
No, all choked with fear, that's why I write this with no mirth,
Go ahead, laugh your way out of slavery, you, who dream
you are free.
And like the foolish, powerful Egyptians, will drown shameless, .
and Godleaa, in another overpowering Red Sea.
