Visceral Intervals

Romans 13:1 - “The authorities that exist have been established by God”… 

Though that seems more of a facade, long shot and a fraud from a world long gone
Since sin no longer seems fiction in this depiction of friction with biased predictions
An election... with no intention of protection for the derelict despite respective messages

Seems like these cycles are a hit-miss of plot twists and taut fists that obscure who God is 
But we make no connection that contention from our own predilection sows dissension
And without intervention comes resentment, we need spiritual direction 

But instead of resting in God’s embrace we attack others with a verbal mace 
while we brace our own heart for impact, still intact, rate of pace faster than light in space
We’re caught up in the race but instead should race to erase the rays of hate from our own race.

Why do we debate the debates as we relegate and castigate with hate, then demand a rebate
or hammer their manner like it’s grammar, then try to conjugate what they obfuscate 
Our minds are lost in space while propaganda confiscates our thoughts of late

Then traps them in relapse, perhaps inaction would produce the largest fraction of satisfaction
But our thoughts are funneled and fueled into to a brew of psychological stew 
so heated and cruel it boils over derision and division, it’s no wonder we have tunneled vision.

Then when the door unhinges, pops open, it’s rigged with bigoted dissonance, explosives
 that spring from an ocean filled with commotion from springs of offense overflowing 
because we dared to confused fact with opinion and reasoning with motive

America caught between a persona gargantuan and aroma of pantsuits and emails scandalous 
The purposes of service is not to deter with private servers or privates and perverts with backers
in reserve or greenbacks in reserves, we reserve the right to deserve more than this disservice

So when we venture into this realm of guesswork where conjecture is turned into  adventure
When the cyclical turns visibly unbiblical with violently physical intervals fueled by the visceral 
Instead of surrendering our heart’s rhapsody of magnitude into apathy and lassitude 

...let us pray for strength to maintain a God sustained attitude of positive aptitude
