Joseph P. DiMino Poet Prose Poetry

They Just Don'T Care

Call it as it is!
Not mistaken.
Not uninformed –  
They just don't care! 
Death in record numbers
at our Southern Border;
Death in the streets
of large cities from 
Fentanyl...They just
don't care! Mask-less
getting her hair done;
at the seaside with
his obedient dog, steak
for him and Kibbles
for the population. She
parties in Florida, 
while the streets of New
York are rapidly becoming
an uninhabitable sewer – 
Even pigeons, rats and 
roaches objecting to
piles of feces on sidewalks,
along curbs, obstructing
their normal foraging, healthier
diets of tossed pizza, bagels 
and imported lox – They just don't
care! Using God and religion
as a prop, to control the naive
masses, while they get richer,
sitting ever higher on their
imagined Royal Asses. Already
card-caring Mammon's. They 
just don't care! Obsessed
with Pursuit-of-power – 
badly in need of a soul-cleansing
shower – the Devil Delighted,
fiery-plans for each selfish-hide -- 
advance reservations on a
Subterranean Ride –

Anil Deo January 4, 2022 at 5:54 AM Shalom, shalom! Yes Sir: "Obsessed with Pursuit-of-power – badly in need of a soul-cleansing shower – " The UNIVERSE (for Me Jesus) is laughing how our gadgets fail us. Einstein who believed, is still helping Science (especially Cosmology) move on Joseph P. DiMino January 4, 2022 at 6:16 AM Hi Anil; Thank you, my friend. When God created the Universe, he created it out of Himself -- that is why He is, all places, knowing at all times. We can only separate ourselves from God, by an act of consciousness. Willful refusal to accept His existence, or blatant defiance. Even then, it is only illusion -- Free Will, which in reality, is yet a spiritual substance of God.
