You Cannot Hide

Always Lamentable You can run but you cannot hide! For the face of God watches all your fiddlings. And is furious over baby killings. You can write all the most moving poetry you choose. But you won't escape supporting these pre-birth shreddings? You really think you aren't  killing God's creations? How diabolical to think human life is but a doll, created by the Wal-Mart nation! I urge all humans with a heart, To allow these tiny ones, the chances you and I have. To not be murdered, to live and Be loved, instead. Perhaps one day, be a poet just like you. To see the sun, moon and stars. Insanity to save animals and trees. But kill off humanity with such joyous ease. June 9, 2019 8:45am PST

Great poetry my friend, life is to be protected, cherished and promoted-- not destroyed. In my opinion, poets are to be lovers of life not champions of destroying life. Dark wins, because we as a nation are now blinded.

Hello Robert..Poetry affords light to shine in, no matter how dark it is. God is still there! While the murder merchants get rich! Poets do love animals, fish, trees, flowers, the sky Babies? I don't think so. Zero compassion for a tiny fellow human? But weep over tuna? OMG. Panagiota xoxo See any women commenting here? No.not holding my breath. It's more than sad. It's a tragedy.

How some see it as an inconvenience beggars belief. But judgement day will come to us all. Tom

Hello Tom, As you know protestors fight for no death penalty for mass murderers. But OK to kill a baby who did no harm. Some protest to be allowed the right to murder the unborn. Poets are notoriously liberal. So I expected no responses on this one. You and Anthony both fearless in responding. Might make one disliked? So what! It was a poem and a request for leniency to the unborn. The commandments are still the same. Thank you, Tom. Panagiota

Well done Panagiota, the problem is the country-world has drifted from the light and life into darkness and death..so killing a baby and calling it your right becomes much easier..but after this short life,we'll all have to answer for our selfishness. Anthony

Am honored by your visit and comment. You are so right about after our short life! Hell will be a crowded place. I hesitated on posting but am not here to be popular or fit in. If my poem can save one child, it's worth it. Or wake someone up..that's the only reason I posted it. We all were tiny humans once. Baby killing has to stop. It's called murder. Panagiota
