Violent Choices
What of violence and God; does not death pre-curse life?
As each and every creature large or small lives through strife.
And, of a righteous wrath, who claims to be source
surely an aberration of mans faulty mental course?
Some claim to be compelled by a higher power and His Voice,
they say they have a calling and have made no human choice.
Violence falls upon the land brought by man on man;
all are left to wonder how this exists without God’s Hand?
Malnourished, over stimulated human kind
find a murderous meanings in the convoluted mind.
Man has given false meaning to accommodate.
Anger does not motivate the most High and holy state,
The wise person will look toward lucre, mortal gain.
God seeks only a loving heart righteousness not pain.
