The Two Twiddle Dees Part 1

There are two twiddle dees,
Of the mind you see,
Who see and don’t see as a Pharisee,
And a Sadducee!

Theses Twins,
Of sin,
Crop up in life, again and again,
They don’t go in,
And remain in their sin,
And from their heart,
Remain apart!

They come from the bad college,
The tree of the divided knowledge!
One is in power, the other is not,
The ploy of the plot,
The mind has Got,
Which is not,
From it’s own heart,
Remaining apart,
They never start,
The narrow part!

Maybe you’ve seen,
These evil twins,
In our own politic’s glean!
One party is in,
One party is out,
Al ways leaving one side to pout!

I speak of the narrow way,
Few be that find to play,
Much less stay,
And attention pay!

The white and the black hat,
I am sorry to say,
Is where our nation is at!
Let us gather together,
Like birds of a feather,
To be one of love’s party!

For a house divided,
Will not be decided,
Un till hate’s abate,
Decides our higher fate!

Then love will Gov,
Not the parties scatter,
Which is what’s the matter!
Can we not find from above,
Just a little love,
At least enough to Gov,
With love?

Our forefathers,
Would not have bothered,
To write love,
Into our Gov,
If our minds were above,
And Able to gov,
Without love!

The heart of our nation,
Was not meant to be it’s current oblation,
The corporate course,
Which has long since, by sense, divorced,
Our godly course!

Our nation's heart,
From it’s very start,
From God’s own heart,
Through our heart,
Is love’s part,
And we must start,
From our heart,
To do love’s part!

And that is how that it must be,
My twiddle dee,
To stay, a nation free!

Hi John, looks like we got featured together. This work reminds me of Lincoln's quote "A house divided will not stand" oh which I'm sure you knew as you wrote this. Here we are 150 years later, I'm sad to see no one listened to him back then and the narrow way of which you speak was followed to the death generation after generation. Very carnal mind of us huh...congradulations and best wishes.

Like the comparison here of the government to the Sadduce(question on spelling) and Pharisee. At first I was going in a different direction. The Saducees believed on thing and the Pharisees another and then get the Levites in there with the law. Keep writing. Sara

John, One heart at a time, peace will come. If we all work together for a peaceful oneness. We ought to start a "Citizen's Commited to Peace through Forgivness." >>> world wide. I wonder how good earth would become. Perhaps almost heavenly... You're theme is interesting and there is plenty of rhyme. Keep writing. Lovingly, Dane

Great analogy of the two parties to "evil twins." Perhaps I have lost faith in our government, but I'm saying "Write On" to this great poem. I'll have to check out part 2 now, John. Love, carolyn
